The innovative directives of the POT of the Harbour Authority of Livorno for the respect of the rules in port
the document turns greater attention to the composition of the rates, the plans of enterprise and their sustainability financial institution
November 30, 2012
The Harbour Authority of Livorno has been profitable notices the carrying elements of Triennial Operations plan 2013-2015, currently to the examination of the Harbour Committee, than they do not regard only the operativity and the use of the harbour docks, topics centralized on the four main aces of the cruises, of the port multipurpose, the shipbuilding one and the naval repairs, but also the directives for the respect of the rules in port, that they constitute principles of decidedly innovative character for the Italian portualità. In particular the POT - the agency explains - turns greater attention to the composition of the rates, the plans of enterprise and their sustainability financial institution.
"The Triennial Operations plan - the harbour authority specifies - becomes, still more than in the past, a not conventional weapon in order to attack all those situation rents that until today are guaranteed through the violation or the partial elusione of the rules. In the new instrument of triennial programming, around which an argument with the representatives of the Harbour Committee is started by little days, there is space for new initiatives on the warm front of the regulation of the operations and the harbour services".
Regarding the enterprise plans, "the idea - the Harbour Authority clarifies - is that to manage an outline of enterprise plan that can constitute a common model for all. The module will afford to the Harbour Authority to confront the financial projects of various subjects that operate in the same merceologico field, let alone the eventual deviations between previewed how much in the business plan and how much effectively operated. The members who will have to be comprised in the enterprise plans will be: the strategies of acquisition of the traffic and the waited for volumes; the organizational structure and the plan of the investments, with particular reference to the availability of human and instrumental resources; the solidity financial institution, provable also by means of documenting approached the credit, let alone the solvency of the contracted debits, in the times established and already fixed in the regulations in vigor, towards the agency of temporary harbour job and, more in general terms, towards the other enterprises; the method of construction and update of the rate".
Moreover - the agency emphasizes - for the rates, these "must comprise all the voices of cost (also those relative ones to the staff). Today - the authority finds - the enterprises are obliged to deposit near the Harbour Authorities the relative rates to the operations and the harbour services, but they are not held to say which are the single voices that of it compose the total amount. Well, with the new POT music is changed: given that the Harbour Authority certainly is not held to enter in the specific commercial dynamics that inspires an operator to adopt a determined rate - the agency of Rosciano Palace emphasizes - will be its cure to manage the actions necessary in order to ask the enterprises a description for the specific elements of which it is composed. The objective is that of being able to verify if the deposited rates allow to satisfy the obligation for the enterprises of the corresponsione of coherent salaries with the national collective bargaining agreement of the workers of the ports and if they cover the relative costs to safety of the workers and in the workplace".
An other forehead is that of the sustainability financial institution of the enterprises. The Harbour Authority remembers that the general secretary of the agency, Massimo Provinciali, it had rimarcato in occasion of the last reunion with the representatives of the enterprises and the unions with respect to the Agelp (the agency of the harbour job that according to art. the 17 of law 84/94 is held to supply the labor to the enterprises to integration of their staff): the lacked payment the Agency of the harbour job - it had explained - is an obvious symptom of the economic embrittlement of a harbour operator and could push the Harbour Authority of Livorno to take of the provisions. To such purpose the harbour agency detailed list that from now on, as it is written black on white in the Triennial Operations plan, the Harbour Authority will verify "the punctual performance than had with respect to the obligations contributive and fiscal", and will characterize "the objective criteria in order to estimate and to measure the ability financial institution of the enterprises, to begin, for example, from the verification of regulating payment of the performances supplied from the agency of temporary harbour job".
