October 3, 2013
The situation is local, that of Genoa, but it is same of many the other Italian territories where numerous enterprises of logistics operate. Indeed, for the modalities with which the companies of the section they answer to the impact of the current national and international economic crisis, it is for many aspects paradigmatic even if reported to the sun genoese shipment houses.
Last year 12.5% of joined the Association Shippers Couriers and Conveyors of Genoa (Spediporto), percentage that is confirmed in the first half of 2013, have made demanded of social shocks-absorber in exception. To this given, introduced today from the president and the general manager of Spediporto, Maurizio Fasce and Giampaolo Botta, in the center of the association, that of the workers of companies joins that do not join to some representation of category or that, for various reasons, decides not to resort to the social shocks-absorber. Laura Tosetti), Fit Cisl (Alberto Gila) and Uiltrasporti have remembered the representatives of from Liguria organizations of the unions Filt Cgil ((Bruno Costa) in the course of the press conference combined that has been indetta with Spediporto in order to illustrate the worrisome given on the occupation and in order newly launch an alarm on the deficiency of deep for the redundancy fund in exception.
About the total number of the workers of the genoese field of shipments hit from the social shocks-absorber, than by Spediporto it is defined with conservation tillage esteem, piles - it has confirmed Blow - to about 1.000-1.200 units. To these - he has specified Laura Tosetti - the workers of logistic large groups join whose contractual problems are faced on a national level, with an impact but also on the local territories.
An ulterior alarming data - it has evidenced the association of the genoese shippers - consists in the fact who, on the total of companies enrolled (5,000 assigned on the single city territory), the hit workers are passed by 7.8% in 2012 to 9.08% in the first semester of this year, an evolution that reveals a worsening of the macroeconomic conditions and a decrease of the productivity, in particular - it has found Maurizio Fasce - of the companies that operate mostly to service of the imports.
About the deficiency of destined economic resources to the social shocks-absorber - Tosetti, Gila and Costa have denounced - the scene is still more darkness: the payments arrive until the month of April 2013 and the cover financial institution is probable only reaches until the next month. After not there is some guarantee on the availability of resources necessary in order to supply in some way to protecting the yield of the workers. This - they have emphasized Belts and Blow - is a serious problem also for the companies, than they perceive it as an ulterior factor of risk that sum to the numerous ones already you anticipate yourself. Not only: in lack of public funds for the redundancy fund in exception (an approval to such purpose is turned by Giampaolo Botta to the Liguria Region for the timeliness with which it has assigned deep) the companies that have made you resorted would have to cover part of the financing not distributed and this - the same Blow has rimarcato referring also to confronts with the unions - constitutes an important problem. For the shipment houses - Maurizio Fasce has remembered - the costs of labor, to clearly of the Regional Business Tax, are pairs at least to 65% of the total voices of expense. If the case were not financed - the president of Spediporto has explained - the companies could be found in front of the necessity to diminish the costs resorting unfortunately to the only possibility: to reduce the staff.
According to the president of the association, besides to resolve the contingent situation is but indispensable to face the problem also on the long period. For Maurizio Fasce so as for the representatives from the workers, there is much road to cover in order to part the crisis behind and is necessary to adopt structural measures in a position to allowing with the enterprises to face the current difficulties let alone to pick the opportunities of a future resumption. It is necessary - Alberto Gila has confirmed - to start up vituous mechanisms. He is indispensable - it has exhorted Laura Tosetti - to institute a table combined with all the involved actors: institutions, enterprises, unions and also operators legacies to the world of the credit.
Time on hand - all have agreed - us is not any more. "The budgets of the companies - it has concluded Bruno Costa - are to the bone. Indeed they have eaten also the bone".
