Sit at the table to work together with the competent Ministries so that the adequate coverage is found to be able to implement the contractualization of all the Calabrian Tis, approximately 4 thousand 200 units, as signed in the March protocol. These were the unions’ requests at the end of the meeting held yesterday, Tuesday 7 May, at the Prefecture of Catanzaro.
Meanwhile there was protest outside[ne abbiamo parlato qui]. Alongside the interns also many mayors. But as mentioned, the problem has been dragging on for too long. Contracting for 18 months, at 18 hours per week, requires coverage of around 70 million euros, while the Government has only put 5 million on the table. But the unions are not only asking for the “collaboration” of the Government, but also of the Municipalities. In fact, 18 hours do not give dignity to the worker, they should be increased to guarantee him a fair “salary”; therefore, bodies must also find resources to support concrete “stabilisation”.
Another aspect that was discussed: the contribution situation. Many “trainees” are approaching retirement age; for some, the contribution gap, given that so far no one has paid them anything, is such that it suggests a situation of poverty even in old age. In short, the unions are sounding the alarm to make it clear that there is no time to waste.
The synergistic action of NIdiL CGIL, FeLSA CISL, UIL Temp and USB FdS must continue more than ever. In fact, at the end of the meeting, nothing else was repeated, namely that the front must be kept compact. Among the objectives is not only to provide stability to interns, but also to provide communities with quality services.
