- FILT-CGIL, CISL and Fit-Uiltrasporti: no to a tax for companies that transport containers to and from the port of Genoa
- The possibility of establishing the tax was ventilated by the deputy mayor of Genoa
In recent days, the deputy mayor of Genoa, Paolo Pissarello, had suggested to establish a fee for all companies that transport containers to and from the port of Genoa. A proposal that has been strongly criticized by the enterprises and organizations of road. Agree with those representatives of trade unions FILT-CGIL, CISL and Fit-Uiltrasporti the freight business in Genoa.
- "Permit that: we are not so presumptuous as to imagine that our thinking may change the intentions of a civic administration nor a case for reform of state law - confirmed today in a note Marco Gallo-Leonardo Cafuoti (FILT-CGIL), Alberto Gila (Fit-CISL) and Bruno Costa (Uiltrasporti) - however it seems only right to express our opinion in regard to what the vice mayor Dr. Pissarello on the desire to establish a fee for all companies that transport containers in the port of Genoa '.
- "We want to remember - explain the representatives of trade unions - that the container sector has not been free of serious crisis which has for over two years and the world of work today despite a substantial increase in traffic compared to 2009, are still far away the positive data from previous years. Also in this area for many companies we had to resort to the activation of social safety nets, such as layoffs in the exemption or mobility. In many other in order to safeguard the employment levels have had to make agreements to reduce labor costs by reducing the pay sometimes up to 20%. After 27 months of contract and a three-day national strike in the sector, on 19 December 2010 was renewed with an increase in Negotiable gross of 134 € which will be fully operational on 1 December 2012. Renewal inter alia, that in the current context has not yet been signed by all the employers' associations. "
- "In virtue of this and considering that today the idea of the law on minimum rates of protection on the transport of cargo per kilometer, is not implementation, so the rule that free competition gives way to greater deregulation - the representatives from of FILT-CGIL, CISL and Fit-Uiltrasporti - this proposal seems inappropriate as a provocation. "
- "We hope that will not be given another fatal blow to a sector strategic, economic and employment is so important for Genoa and beyond - he concludes - and we would ask you to rethink the civic administration to send a clear message to those responsible, in ensuring that should apply the law as soon as possible. In the event that this latest tax placed on organizations in the sector, we will give our fullest support to the transport companies. "
