Two thousand hirings in the three-year period 2024-2026, of which over half (1,100) within the first half of 2025 and a further five hundred within the first half of 2026, net of retirement leavers and with a check on the progress of entry into service by first half of 2026. It is the most important and qualifying point of the agreement reached between Enel and the trade union organizations Filctem Cgil, Flaei Cisl and Uiltec Uil, who have thus decided to suspend the ongoing unrest, which had given rise to a series of strikes in various sectors of the company in recent weeks.
The agreement, signed through a protocol signed by the parties, is based on a series of points which nevertheless have a common denominator: the centrality and importance of industrial relations and, above all, the confirmation of Enel’s strategic role in the distribution sector of energy, with the full valorisation of internal staff. In this context, ad hoc training courses will be defined that allow the strengthening and consequent creation and valorisation of highly specialized professional profiles. The need to maintain an adequate level of internal skills and an adequate territorial presence is therefore confirmed. It is also worth mentioning the stop to the outsourcing of operating operations and a strengthening of CO and LST, in addition to the fact that the company will not proceed with the new e-distribution timetables. To verify the agreements in this sense, the parties have decided to set up a bilateral technical commission which will evaluate 360 degrees, by next September 30th, the distribution problems and the appropriate corrective measures useful for solving the many existing problems. The consequences of the organizational and process evolutions deriving from the implementation of the strategic plan and the overall scenario will then be examined in depth, with particular reference to the most recent changes to the structure of the network area, the coal phase-out, concessions and investments. of the renewables area and the development of the Retail area. Now it remains to be seen whether this change of scenario in the relationship between the energy spa and the trade union organizations will also be followed by a modification, even partial, of the company strategy regarding its role in specific realities, such as those relating to production.
