The unions Filt Cgil And Uiltrasporti they announced a whole day of strike for Monday 22 April, with a demonstration that will be set up in front of the entrance to the terminal Darsena Tuscany.
Involved will be the guards at the fires in the port of Livorno, with the aim of protecting the workers of Sicurmare, a company that carries out the supplementary fire-fighting service in the port of Livorno. “Part of the 24 employees who are responsible for manning the docks during the unloading of dangerous and flammable goods is at risk of redundancy and we do not accept it – they said Giuseppe Gucciardo by Filt Cgil e Massimo Marino of Uiltrasporti – what affects the cut in work shifts is above all the decision of the port master’s office to modify the ordinance that establishes the operational structure to be maintained in those docks where these goods are unloaded”.
“Now it is foreseen that two fire guards and three firefighters must be present on the dock, while the original ordinance provided for inverse numbers – they added – we therefore ask that the number of fire guards return to 3”.
“Finally, the decision of the top management also puts an important part of the shifts at risk Eni refinery in Stagno to proceed with the conversion into a biorefinery – they concluded – with all that this entails in terms of reduction of hydrocarbon fractionation and, therefore, a reduction in ship traffic with this type of cargo”.
