The meeting took place yesterday with Massimo Proverbio, Head of the Chief Data, AI and Technology Officer Governance Area. The Dr. Proverbio presented the results achieved and the projects in the pipeline, according to guidelines and operational activities which include:
- migration to the cloud as a tool to ensure flexibility, cost reduction and resilience,
- creation of a new digital platform and new channels for the Group, in partnership with ThoughtMachine,
- data and artificial intelligence as key elements to understand customers better, reduce costs and risks,
- further strengthening of ICT by enabling agile methodologies of collaboration with the business.
- improvement of cybersecurity also in light of growing geopolitical risks.
A significant part of the illustration was dedicated to the development of the Isytech platform which, created and tested on Isybank, will be progressively extended to the entire Group, allowing for simplification and speeding up of operations even with traditional customers. Furthermore, a certain space has been dedicated to the development of AI and its applications in the Company, through a process which is both one of strong expansion and management marked by caution based on specific elements of “human” intervention and supervision.
Obviously a large part of the meeting was dedicated to issues that directly affect C-Daito colleagues. In this regard, the recruitment plan carried out and the new company methods for identifying and enhancing professionalism were illustrated, in particular on the following three projects:
- Falcon (plan to hire approximately 1,800 people with differentiated skills and adequate seniority levels (69% junior and 31% expert and senior);
- New GT (Differentiation of supervision by application area facilitated by the insourcing of skills and valorisation of technical skills);
- Matrix (Attention to Tech profiles and alignment with the best market practices of Tech Companies).
The meeting was an opportunity to reiterate directly to Dr. Proverbio, as well as at the highest levels of Industrial Relations present at the meeting, the union requests regarding:
- employment guarantees that must not be called into question by the development of new technologies,
- distribution of new hires across the entire national territory,
- reasonable development based on a correct balance between the needs of flexibility and those of professional development in the use of SW and other forms of flexibility,
- start of a serious and productive discussion for the definition of contractualized Roles and Paths that grant colleagues transparency and verifiability of their professional development and related certain economic rewards,
- attention on the part of their managers in the assignment and, subsequently, in the correct management of professional titling. This important item of the professional profile has taken the place of “seniority” in all its previous functions. It is a “certificate” of the “level of professionalism performed” and “enhances the competence expressed regardless of the profession carried out” in which each individual colleague must
mirror yourself.
More generally, the profound changes that had already been announced in previous meetings and which see further and significant expansions and accelerations make the constant involvement of workers’ representatives indispensable and the centrality of negotiation to govern the various phases. As always, the objective we set ourselves is not only to contain the consequences of such a pervasive and tumultuous innovation, but also to guarantee the recognition of the expectations, professionalism and commitment of colleagues.
