Filt Cgil asks the institutions not to make to pay to the genoese workers the account of the crisis of the shipping
Sped up a greater attention to international the commercial policies
December 1, 2016
The not satisfied appeal to that "Genoa the account of a system crisis" is not turned to a specific addressee, so much immense appears the problem to resolve, but generically to with of the "institutions". Objective it is difficult to characterize precisely who will be able, if not to assure a solution, at least to engage itself to characterize suitable measures to do so as that, as Filt Cgil asks, the workers of the genoese marine agencies do not endure the consequences of the crisis that is crossing the field of the containerized marine transport, to the taken ones as she is with the inability of the companies to impose increases of the rates, with an excess of ability to the fleets and with other factors that by now contribute for a long time to depress an asphyxiated market. Crisis that does not save not even other sections of the shipping.
The union does not rely on the reassurance of Gian Enzo Duci, president of Assagenti, the association of the genoese shipping agents, second which - as Filt Cgil remembers - it would be minimal the risk of cuts to the occupation.
"Naval gigantism, decrease of the hires and the commercial traffics - Marco Gallo and Daniele Gadaleta, coordinator and responsible Agenzie and Spedizionieri di Filt Cgil Genoa find - is to the base of the revolution that is involving the marine agencies. Fusions, failures, acquisitions world-wise are reflected on our city, making to pay to the occupation the price of such operations. Not more late than some day it makes - Gallo and Gadaleta remember - have arrived letters of lay-off to the 95 dependent of Hanjin Italy, the majority operating to Genoa. In this year Shipping only Lowers has stopped the activity and by virtue of a unitary trade-union agreement about sixty dependent they are passed to COSCO; the society CMA CGM has acquired mandates of Delta and APL, with an occupational balance negative still to conclude itself. An operation between UASC and Hapag-Lloyd is on, respective 100 and 270 dependent; it prints international has announced the fusion between the Japanese companies NYK, MOL and "K" Linens that on Genoa are represented by three different agencies; and at last Maersk that is acquiring Hamburg Süd".
"In short - Gallo and Gadaleta observe - a total situation of the section in evolution in which we would not want that to pay the account of a system crisis they were as always the workers".
The indistinct appeal to the institutions of the Filt Cgil is therefore that of "a greater attention to international the commercial policies to protection not only of the occupation, but also of the marine economy and the induced one of the logistic chain and the services".
