Usclac celebrates the fifty-year period wishing that own this year the marine job is re-inserted in the directory of the wearing activities
would benefit some approximately 1.800 workers
July 4, 2017
the hope is that, in the year in which Captains celebrate the 50 years from the foundation of the Usclac union (Union Trade-union Long Corso al Comando), the marine job is readmitted in the directory of the wearing activities, list in which included era in 1993 with I decree legislative n. 374 and from which removed era then in 1999 appearing in I do not decree of the minister of the Job and the Social Security n. 208.
then the Usclac, organization to which in the 2004 the Uncdim acronym has joined (National Union Captains Chief engineers) and that in 2012 General staff Abilitato to the Command or the Direction of Car has seen the addition of the Smacd acronym (), has beaten himself for the reintegration of the category of the marine workers in this directory.
the union is constituted in 1967 and in the evening of next thursday, 6 July, date of the foundation, will celebrate its 50 years of activity with a festivity to Genoa, to Columbus Terrace. The ciliegina on the cake would be the acknowledgment of wearing activity to the marine job, initiative that is priority for the labor organization and that the next autumn in the within of the new Law of Stability could be concluded positively.
With the last financial act us is not successful commander Claudio Tomei, president of Usclac-Uncdim-Smacd, has explained today the journalists and it will remember it also thursday to the event to Columbus Terrace to which they will participate, besides joined the union, also the representatives of the various categories of the marine cluster, than "in the Law of Stability 2016 are inserted in the category of "wearing" also the masters of asylum, last to join to a directory who, between the others, comprises also the bus drivers. We do not have nothing against these well-respected categories of workers, is clear, ognuna of which it has its criticalities - it has specified Tomei - is but obvious who our job is by far more laborious, and dangerous, of theirs". Fatigue aggravated from the atmosphere of job, that is a ship on which the marine one it lives 24 hours to the day for weeks or months passing to you also free time. Far away, therefore, from house and often working in adverse conditions weather.
"Usclac-Uncdim-Smacd - it has specified moreover Tomei - represents the commanders and the chief engineers, that is to say the two higher figures able: but the assertions that we get ahead along with Federmanager regard all the workers whom they operate on board of the ships, from the officials to the crew: all in fact share disagiati timetables, heavy conditions of job, labor (mental and physical), fatigue and stress".
Second the calculations of the union, the marine Italians are approximately 30 thousand. Last year 1,800 of these could have had use of the granted benefits to who it is comprised in the lists of the wearing intense activities. In the 2017 figure it would have to be more or less the same one. The acknowledgment of the wearing job to the marine ones would have a meager cost for the State, than Usclac it considers comprised between 4,5 and six million euro.
an obstacle to the reintegration in the directory could paradoxicalally be just represented from the reduced number of assigned of the field, crushed from the "contractual power" of categories with a decidedly advanced number of workers. A brake could be represented also from the impossibility to all purposes and effects for the marine ones to vote in occasion of electoral consultations or referendum, has found Tomei remembering that also this is one of the battles which got ahead from the union in order to allow with the marine ones to express own ballot when they are on board of the ships.
Nevertheless - it has emphasized Tomei - not is some, between the several political forces of left, central and of right and neither between the categories of the marine world, than contexts that the job of the marine ones is wearing.
Between the battles that the Usclac is fighting "one, still in course for some aspects, but substantially won - it has specified Tomei - is that on the asbestos". But the challenges are continuous and, between these, there is for example that for I renew of the national collective bargaining agreement for the marine field that will expire 31 December, contract that some days before is disdettato before by the Usclac and then by the other labor organizations. The represented ones of the Usclac do not know which will be the interlocutors since they must be confronted with the datoriali representations Assorimorchiatori, Federimorchiatori, Fedarlinea and Confitarma, but - if this last one, like some assumes, had to splinter off in various shipowning organizations - the negotiations could be complicated. However the Usclac knows already which will be own demands: wage increases will not be claimed since - is explained today - the counterparts have already evidenced the impossibility to proceed in such sense, but will be placed demanded in welfare topic, with detail reference to the superannuation funds and the sanitary assistance.
