Mirafiori The agreement is an attack on the rights of all workers in the country.
Open a true comparison in CGIL for a response to this phase.
The agreement signed at Mirafiori is a real political and union demonstrations indicates that the only possible model of development and competition to the disappearance of the democratic rights of the individual employee, the right to strike and, ultimately, the sterilization of the union and of elected representatives (Fiat workers can no longer vote for the election of the RSU, the national secretariats in their place appointed from RSA that will not respond to workers). It 'not an attack on the Fiom, not this or that group leader, but to democracy, our idea of \u200b\u200bunion, the CGIL all.
is the furthest point of a clear political design is complete strategies of the Government, proposing an exit right at the highly ideological and social crisis across the country. There is no question of signature technique (which also would be legally binding and in blatant violation of the Statute of the CGIL), the problem arises: is not tactical but fundamental: every determination present in those texts (which should be read and distributed to comment on them before!) is a time bomb for workers around the country, for all categories, for those who work there is the 'or has lost it.
The response must be political, trade union and cultural. It must be everyone. You can not leave only to employees of the Fiat blackmailed or just metal workers the burden of a battle that involves the entire world of work. Why the new framework we proposed in vivid terms the issue of capacity to govern the economic changes and, in such a global system without reducing protections and rights, but even extending them and innovations. That is also the challenge that now faces the trade union movement and the political left and social exclusion in Europe and in our country.
that are laid on the structural problems of our production system, social and industrial relations manager nodes that Fiat unveils brutally but certainly did not create him. 'S last congress of the CGIL has not been able to address this area of \u200b\u200banalysis and proposal, and today, again, the contradictions in all their drama. We are all called to a quantum leap.
Mirafiori For if the agreement demonstrates the inadequacy of the recent reform of the contractual model, which already has cost loss of real wages to workers (over 40% inflation last year was linked to the cost in energy) and can derogabilità several key contractual institutions, it is above all evidence of how the issue of ensuring collective agreements actually erga omnes - today even without the accession or not this or that employer association - is entirely in front of us. That if a budget is done, it must be comprehensive and cover an entire phase of our industrial action to which all are called to a more initiative, looking to national circumstances, but especially in Europe. And 'the theme of how to build a true European political and social policies that address industrial and employment enhancing the size of citizenship is the theme of collective bargaining agreements that must be increasingly supranational dimension with real transfer of sovereignty by the national trade union centers. And 'the theme of words as a model of development on a continental scale and comprehensive introduction to reactivate upward social mobility for all weaker sections of society. And 'the theme of what is meant by productivity, because in Italy has declined overall productivity, but not the labor (European Central Bank data report 2010). And 'no one says this, accepting a place of comparison in large part false. Italian workers are among the most productive at the European level, work more in terms of quantity and timing of their fellow Germans, French and English, their working time is more than an average of 3 hours per week. The overall productivity is lower because the lower the technological content and innovation in this production structure and product cycle. The productivity of capital is 35% lower than the European average and this results in labor cost per unit of output relatively high. That in a nutshell: it uses most of the work on a proportional basis because it costs less and do not invest in new machinery, product and process innovation. The productivity of investment and lack of facts (perhaps with the resources diverted into financial assets, property or salaries to managers in a thousand times higher than those of its employees) is the real issue and is - in short - the subject of a competition based on the quality and added value. The Fiat case is typical: it does not contribute to the Japanese research center for new materials or with the laboratories of German design, you compete with the cost of the work of the Serbs or the Poles.
The crisis today has therefore already taken the "barbarians beyond the front door" as many as 3 million Italians are under the poverty line (+15% Over the last two years) and 7 are close to that of relative poverty (+19%), youth unemployment has reached a record high of 30%, hundreds of thousands of temporary workers have lost their jobs in companies Private and public administrations, having allowed stratospheric gains or maintenance of essential services of public utility. Thousands of young people today are condemned to a life of precarious existence. Of that I am well aware that the students themselves, in many, have taken a clear link between the reform Gelmini, the increase of tuition fees and a labor market that delivers them to a production system and social injustice. Over 200 000 employees indefinitely lost their jobs, enjoying only and for only a few months of unemployment and hundreds of thousands of them have suffered heavy wage cuts as a result of social safety nets, and 3 and a half million civil servants will remain for next year without a contract renewal, millions of workers and retirees pay the crisis with a clear reduction of their spending power, with a tax burden on them for more than 80% of the revenue and a clear reduction of social services and the local welfare, already heavily "hawk" by the cuts in 2008 and 2009, will decline further this year, hitting the poorest families, the elderly and the socially weak.
To this was compounded by an attack on democracy, the right to dissent, the same system of collective representation, questioning the role of intermediate bodies (the same Confindustria, Fiat after the release and the upcoming release of Fincantieri, should take note that once embarked on the path of the exceptions, there is always someone willing to do more!) and the possibility for workers to decide who to be represented. We
democracy as a farce, used as a cudgel in the referendum and blackmail, the recognition of the union only when you have guaranteed to the company and Controller of workers. In a time when Democracy is threatened by the continuous attacks on freedom of information and cultural pluralism, in which political parties suffer from a crisis of unprecedented representation, what emerges is a true corporate model, reactionary and authoritarian chasing an idea poor development and organization and where the free interplay of ideas and interests is not seen as the salt of modern democracy, but a problem to solve. We are concerned that this involution leads to the same CISL and UIL and its categories, the next - if there is such a generalized logic - a true genetic mutation where the representation is built out of the workplace (Bilateral Agencies) or only through recognition of the counterparties. A mutation in which we actually come to terms that will be sold in practice negotiating.
There is, then, the imperative need to give a consistent reading of events, one can not proceed in considering the events and choices of companies, unions and government chaotic and unconnected events. We can not consider the act of Marchionne disconnected from the ideological choices in the related work. The cancel a revocation of the possible claims precarious sa return to the fifties. The reduction of funding for culture are very serious act against an entire system, an act that touches not only the principles principles such as freedom of expression but also the technological and economic development.
Our category is heavily affected by many measures the government, represented by what the SLC are suffering or at risk of suffering (think of the world of call centers or contracts) is not very different from what we suffer today metalworkers Fiat.
Need to rediscover the profound meaning of the concept of solidarity.
need a debate within the CGIL no easy retreat into fences, bureaucratic or personal disagreements with the objective of making a joint effort by all and seek a response to this new phase, new and risky, the Country is experiencing. Need
counter Mirafiori agreement outlining a proposal at the same time clear, precise, made a few points, with the ambition to influence and to "witness" reconquest of a model contract be valid for all workers to give full effect Articles 39, 40 and 41 of the Constitution and by establishing a statutory minimum wage or a basic income for any law, individual rights unavailable to all parties collective and therefore the recognition of a system of real democracy and real representation of workers valid for all companies, allowing more - in the case of divisions between unions representing or even if requested by a minority of workers - to give, via referendum, the last word to those directly interested in the individual agreement. We need a special maneuver to stabilize precarious in government, schools, universities and research related to the work to be "removed" with a strong and coordinated action is in contract (domestic and business) that vertenziale, with the aim of reaching a comprehensive reform of the labor market and atypical types, which reduces wage dumping and regulatory practice in respect of these open-ended contract. Contractual and fiscal reform is necessary to return the purchasing power to workers and retirees, with a capital which are aimed at supporting income tax returns. On this
the CGIL should start a campaign to mobilize immediately in all places of work, do a proper information campaign against the strategy of silence and the "discursive chatter" operated by the major media, and return of the hero ' dialogue with political parties, civil society, the movements - from the students - as already indicated the landing path of the claim is a day of general strike. Prepare well, to be turned into a moment of protest and a proposal that speaks to the whole country, Italy better for young people. This from the day of action and the fight for already proclaimed January 28 of next comrades FIOM, which has for so enter this path.
When we say "socialism or barbarism" today, more moderately, we are satisfied the "minimum rights and freedom to decide or barbarism."
