There is an alarm in Italian ports for the entry into force, from Friday 15 October, of the obligation to have a green pass in the workplace.
In Trieste, the Port Workers' Committee (CLPT) threatened to stop the activity of the port "indefinitely" if there is no postponement of the measure, and other meetings have been convened in all the ports of the Peninsula with the protest that therefore risks extending to most of the country's airports.
In detail, a circular from the Interior Ministry recommends companies "to make free rapid molecular or antigenic tests available to personnel without green pass", specifying then that economic operators "will be able to evaluate".
“The only opening they can have towards us is to remove the green pass, warned the spokesman for the port of Trieste, while the management companies at the Port of Palermo have already announced that they will not take charge of the swabs to the dockers.
"My hope is that with common sense we can reach a balance" otherwise "we risk doing enormous damage, not only to the economy of the city but also to all those workers who work with the port industry, and not only in the port "the words from Trieste of the president of the Friuli Region and of the Conference of Regions Massimiliano Fedriga, specifying" not to intervene as a Region on productive realities, because I have deep respect for the institutions that govern them ". Fedriga has again proposed from 15 October "less annoying and do-it-yourself nasal swabs to be carried out with responsible office supervision". This could be "an alternative solution to the Green pass", also to meet those who "in working age have not yet carried out the vaccine", the clarification.
Fedriga also explained that the response from the government has yet to arrive: "They are evaluating starting from the tampon capacity that the pharmacy system is able to do. This design would remain consistent with the protection of health and keep everything open. the pandemic the first to lose would be the economic activities. And then these buffers would facilitate from the organizational point of view those who have to do it and also all the operators; too large numbers would be unmanageable ".
