The Harbour Companies of Genoa and Savona anticipate a project for a new organization of the harbour job



The Harbour Companies of Genoa and Savona have introduced a proposal of new organization of the harbour job, that we publish in the address book "Forum of the Shipping and the Logistics", that for example takes this that happens in the nordeuropei ports and that it asks the Harbour Authorities a direct participation in order to implement this form of order of the job. For the Harbour Authorities, that genoese one directly consulted has answered that it cannot be made, at least with the current normative picture, and that to the maximum it can some be begun to speak. This is the free one sunto of a convention on "harbour Job: an European challenge" that has carried out this afternoon to Saint George Palace, center of the Harbour Authority of Genoa, is that it has been organized from genoese the Company Unica Lavoratori Merci Varie Paride Batini and Harbour Compagnia Pietro Chiesa and from savonese Harbour Company CULP.

According to Antonio Benvenuti, "the Harbour Authorities would have to set the problem to organize the flexible job". The consul of the CULMV P. Batini has recalled himself to the examples of the port of Antwerp, where temporary the harbour job is guaranteed by a pool that in the crisis moments is supported by the contribution of all the port, and the port of Amburgo, where is in existence compensating mechanisms for a pool of the temporary job that is constituted by 1.100 people. Regarding these examples - for Welcomes - this that lack to the ports of Genoa and Savona is "an agency regolator". The consul of the CULMV has complained that "the Harbour Authority is not an active subject of the harbour job". Moreover, besides not to be financed the formation of the workers to which now they supply independently the Harbour Companies, lacks also an instrument compensation.

"To Antwerp and Amburgo the flexible job has become of public interest for the port", it has said Welcomes referring to the modality with which, second the proposal of the Harbour Companies of Genoa and Savona, the Harbour Authorities could introduce the new model of organization of the proposed job: "ours - it has synthetized - it is service of general interest". We believe - it has specified - than in the 84/94 (the law in harbour matter currently in vigor, ndr) is the legal base in order to allow with the Harbour Authority to take part (in particular has made reference codicil 1 of article 6 that it establishes, among other things, than between the tasks of the Harbour Authorities there is that of the "confidence and control of the activities directed to the supply under onerous title to the harbour users of services of general interest").

Remembering that before last the two years, when the decrease of the traffic has tax a different scene, the formulation of Harbour Company CULP Savona Pippo Rebagliati has been "of extensive type not limiting itself to the mere labor", the consul of the savonese Company, Alberto Panigo, have emphasized above all the necessity that is "clear guarantees in economic terms".

The consul of the Company Harbour Pietro Chiesa, Tyrrhenian Whites, than among other things has left a door opened to that "a distance for the fusion of the two Companies can be found" while Welcomes had clarified that "not there is some proposal of amalgamation or fusion of the Harbour Companies", the role of the Harbour Authority has rimarcato that, in the proposal of the three Companies, "cannot more being a notary public, but must become actor".

Between the experts of the field invited to the event, Sergio Bologna it has evidenced that in last the 20 years in the warehouses of the logistics a remarkable change has happened introducing to "ricattabile" the personal job and that is who wants to carry this model of job in the ports. Lawyer Davide Maresca has observed that "in the 84/94 the 17 are written that art (than it disciplines the supply of temporary harbour job, ndr) is not of general interest", but - it has asserted - the Harbour Authority can establish this that is of general interest. According to the lawyer, the job supply, as service, "can be of general interest" and this "can mean to limit the access at the market". For Maresca the choice, "strategic politics or", it is in the hands of the Harbour Authority. Mario Sommariva, general secretary of the Harbour Authority of Bari, has admonished that if in the ports this had to explode the social conflict would have devastating effects for the field, in particular also for the forms with which such already manifest confrontation in other segments of the logistics, that is in wild, not organized way and without the participation of the unions. Sommariva has restated the specificities of temporary the harbour job, than it is not interim job and not even a service in contract, and has exhorted not to today comment the proposal introduced with "here they are of new": "to invoke the specialty - it has explained - it does not want to say to ask the conservation". Agreeing with the need that "the Harbour Authority is an active subject in the field of the job", Sommariva has defined "just" the decision of the Harbour Authority of Livorno to directly support the Agency for the Job in Port, of which the agency it has obtained 49% of the capital (inforMARE on December 3, 2014).

The participation of the president of the Harbour Authority of Genoa is begun with a perplexity manifestation: "sincerely - Luigi Merlo has said - it is not easy, because we risk to go out with the ideas more confused than those with which we have entered". For Merlon, in particular, "in the argument a piece lacks: the market". "For me - it has added - the model based on the self-determination and the flexibility goes absolutely defended", but it has remembered that "while we support that the labor laws harbour go extended to the retroporto, from the other part the retroportuale world says the contrary". The perplexities of Merlon are tied to the proposed modalities of participation from the Harbour Companies: "these things - it has specified - are resolved alone with actions of normative character". Merlon has little confidence that currently gives the Harbour Authorities can reach a meaningful contribution to the reform of law 84/94 on the ports: Genoa is felt single, with Ravenna, practically against all. For this - it has explained - I have exited from the association of the Italian Harbour Authorities: "from the point of view of the political line - it has denounced - Assoporti it has become Assomorti, with all these ports commissariats"; and for this "with Ravenna we have decided to join to ESPO", the association of the European ports, "because we feel ourselves more represented from an European vision".

That Merlon has not collected the invitation of Sommariva not to reply to the proposal of the Harbour Companies with "here they are of new", but to assert that the proposal advanced from the Harbour Companies "has been also a way in order to mark the land" ago to have a premonition that the president of the Harbour Authority of Genoa considers that this initiative is too much of part. In fact it has manifested the absolute availability to from next week start an argument on the topic of the harbour job, but on condition that it involves the other subjects of the marine-harbour community.
