April 12, 2013
This morning with 391 yes, 33 not, three null blank ballots and the three workers of the ship yard of Sestri West (Genoa) of the Fincantieri group have approved of the trade-union agreement on cargos and organization of the job which signed 5th April from the company, Genoa Confindustria, the provincial representations of Genoa di Fim, Fiom and Uilm and from the RSU of the workers of the yard. Of the 430 voting on the having 591 straight, the 90.9% have been expressed favorably, while the contrary ballots have been the 7.7%. Yes it reaches to a month from the green light to an analogous agreement voted from the workers of the yard of Castellammare di Stabia of the Fincantieri group.
"With this ballot - it has emphasized Fiom Cgil Genoa in a note - the Fincantieri dependent have ratified the trade-union agreement with which it is successful to defend the rights of the workers and the job, contracting it is the management of workloads, is the store clerk; in the agreement in question also the flexibility is contracted to use for the period in which the next ship will be present in yard, that is beginning from March 2014. The Fiom Cgil emphasizes the great result reached with the ballot today, turned out been profitable possible thanks to the fights that since May 2010 they have prevented that the yard was closed".
Satisfaction for the outcome of the voting is expressed also by Fim: draft - it has found Alberto Monticco, national secretary of the adherent federation to Cisl - of "a result still more wide one than that obtained, little time makes, to Castellamare di Stabia, a result that gratifies the engagement that all the structures and all the RSU, unitarally have profuse in order to reach an agreement that give continuity to from Liguria site". "It is a sure positive fact to have obtained so a wide sharing of the workers - Tiziano Roncone has confirmed, general secretary Fim Cisl Liguria - means that we have worked well and that we have interpreted the necessities of the workers. Without "external interferences" we could have concluded before also, but it goes well so. We are in continuity with the agreement of 21 December and with the other 15 agreement of February and, like we had demanded, we have reduced the number of the surplus (come down by 330 to a maximum of 180 units, ndr). Now we want that also politics and the institutions make own part in order definitively to put in safety the yard". "I do not want to make controversies - has added Monticco - but a fact is being manifested: it is according to agreement on two attempts that is closed unitarally to local level, adding flexibility to the amounts previewed from the national collective bargaining agreement signed from Fim and Uilm. Like saying that, differently from how much declares the national Fiom, ours contracted it joins and the vindicative paper Fiom it is more and more waste paper, which tore from the same Fiom to local level"
"As a result of this important carried out - Antonio Apa has declared, secretary of Uilm Liguria - after to have realized the industrial pole of the soldier, the conditions are created in order to make of the area of Sestri West a pole of shipbuilding development of the naval one, that it will happen through the displacement of the center of via Cyprus, the center searches of the Cetena and the creation of a center of excellence between Fincantieri and Università of Genoa, through the realization of laboratories of search and experimentation for the development of new activities. It astonishes - it has continued Apa - than the general secretary of Cgil of Genoa some days before has declared that, "also in presence of the upset to sea" (essential work for the recovery of efficiency and competitiveness of the yard) supports exclusively that an area of that type must be used single and to the production. And are the employees - the representative of Uilm Liguria has denounced - what? Smaller sons of a God? Particularly those of the Cetena and via Cyprus. These last ones, with high profiles, lend their professionality are for the planning that to support of the production; while those of the Cetena are investigators used after the development of new industrial initiatives, like do not go underrated the engagement between Università and Fincantieri for the takeover of laboratories, than in new perspective they can tomorrow represent occupation and development occasion. Evidently - he has concluded Apa - the general secretary of Cgil, in spite of the evolution of the manifacturing industry, has remained berthed to old logical of the past so-called "operaistiche". I would want to remember to it that the Fiom organization is about to Federation Employed Metallurgical Workers; in a single blow it would want to cancel the employees not considering them productive. A true masterpiece" .
