A delegation made up of about twenty Air Italy workers attended the general audience of Pope Francis this morning in the Vatican, which was held - as usual - in the Paul VI Hall.
On January 3, the airline's 1,322 employees were subject to collective redundancies , following the company's decision not to request an extension of the layoffs.
"I hope that their working situation can find a positive solution, respecting the rights of all, especially families. It is important to safeguard the labor rights of all", declared the Pontiff.
In the afternoon, again in Rome, in via Molise, the seat of the Ministry of Economic Development, a garrison is scheduled to ask for an intervention by the institutions to extend the cig.
The unions Filt-Cgil, Fit Cisl, Uiltrasporti and Ugl Transport Aereo are once again pressing on the government to convene, in a short time, a new discussion table on the dispute, after the commitment made by the institutions to "update themselves within the first week of January "and sent a letter to the Mise and to the ministries of Sustainable Infrastructure and Mobility and of Labor.
"We are once again soliciting the convening of the interministerial table so that we can once again implement all possible actions aimed at safeguarding professionalism - explained the secretary of Filt-Cgil Sardegna, Arnaldo Boeddu -. In my opinion, we must necessarily find the right a way to create a single pool of former Alitalia and former Air Italy workers so that companies can and must draw from that pool for the recruitment of new staff. In addition, tools must be found to prevent these workers from losing their qualifications and the certifications which, if not exercised over time, are lost ".
