Still a interlocutorio encounter on the future of Fincantieri

New reunions in program 24 October and 9 November. The managing director Bono assures that the company will not close the plant of Sestri West

Still a interlocutorio encounter on Fincantieri that holding today to Rome near the ministry of the economic Development between the Roman minister Paolo, the unions and the managing director of the company, Giuseppe Bono, whose outcome has been that to program for next 9 November a new reunion in order to estimate the total situation of the group on all the national territory, encounter moreover already previewed from the minutes undersigned from government, company and unions to beginning summer ( of the 3 june 2011) and that October from a reunion between the unions and management of Fincantieri on workloads in the plants of the company will be preceded 24.

The only innovation of relief is the assurance from the managing director Bono who the company will not close the ship yard of Sestri West (Genoa) as a result of the waited for signature in order today from the minister of the Economy, Giulio Tremonti, of I decree that it unblocks 50 million euros for the upset to sea of the genoese plant. "We take - the president of the Liguria Region has commented, Claudius Teasing - what of good has given this reunion to us: thanks to the mobilization of the workers and the city of Genoa West is given the go-ahead free definitive to the financing of 50 million for the upset to sea of the yard of Sestri, attends today within the signature of the minister Tremonti. The president of the Harbor Authority Merlon - he has added Teasing - has assured the lacking possibility to still anticipate 20 million. Moreover Fincantieri has been said available to open a table in order to define the investments in order to adapt the systems: Sestri is an historical yard that needs of improvements: for example the increase of the bathtubs of the basins in order to receive the ships of new conception. Still, the realization of the new dock is a lot important, that it will be delivered by the Harbor Authority in the next few days. All this above all guarantees us on a future for Sestri West that will be able to continue to produce ships, from cruise".

"What it remains very negative - it has continued from Liguria governor - is the absence of certainties for new store clerks. The programmed encounter becomes therefore a lot important in order to examine workloads of all the yards of the group. Sure draft not to open wars between poor on the store clerks. But the role of Sestri West must be contemplated in the working of all the acquired store clerks and in those for which the company it is dealing. Draft to estimate all the possibilities connected to the civil and military ships, so like to the new relative plans to the platforms for the refusals and the offshore Aeolic. The irrenounceable objective is in the next few days to obtain a sure program of activity for the genoese yard for all 2012".

Teasing the importance has restated to consider every complementary initiative that can defend the occupation, between which those cited by the managing director Bono - the floating platforms for the treatment of the refusals and those eoliche offshore - but also the necessity not to forget the historical vocation about the genoese yard: "I consider - it has explained - than the proposals of Bono are all profits, also considering that, for example, for the Aeolic the forecast is that between twenty years there will be more Aeolic parks offshore that on the territory. Task but that Sestri West is an historical yard, even if has need of some elements of modernization, and that it goes safeguarded like ship yard. Any initiative in order to manage the yards to new constructive requirements will see to us available to collaborate because I consider that he is fundamental to assure the continuity of job to this yard with smaller ships also, but ships".

Commenting the understanding reached for the other from Liguria plant of the company Trigoso, Teasing it has remembered that the agreement "is judged positively by the entire Tigullio, because the yard remains the only productive truth between Genoa and Spezia. Now we make to understand in any case - it has concluded - that we hold to this yard, because feeling or less, the perception has been that of a sure lack of consideration for Sestri".

Yesterday the national coordination of Fiom-Cgil of the Fincantieri group has announced the proclamation of eight hours of general strike of the workers of the navalmeccanico group and the companies of contract to carry out itself for next 21 October, with national manifestation to Rome. From Fiom the definition is considered "necessary, from the direction of the group, of a clear strategy of productive diversification, through chosen that producing in segments of the additional activity of shipbuilding regarding current "Core allow also the realization of new business business". All this - it has explained the labor organization - against the fact that the crisis of the field, in existence from by now beyond two years, persists and does not leave to catch a glimpse resumption perspectives in the short term, hitting with detail forces the fields of productive specialization of the group".

Fiom has restated in particular its critic to the strategy adopted from the business direction that "is developing through the search of understandings yard for yard that they divide to the workers and the labor organizations, questioning the system of industrial relations national". "To this end - it has specified the union - the national coordination Fiom currency negatively the agreement and the separate minutes of reunion already sign in some yards because, without some plan of investments and of I throw again, they define the reduction of the organic ones in the Fincantieri group and increase the job assigned in contract, getting worse altogether the conditions of job in the plants".

Fiom therefore has sped up the resumption of confronts between national unions, government and company and has asked the government "who the specific table comes immediately riconvocato in order to define, for mean-along period, the participations necessary to face markets and producing that they can increase the within of action of the group, to assign to a productive mission detailed list to every site and yard of the same group, and to realize the cancellation of the deck of cuts and closings introduced from 23 the business direction past May ( of 23 May 2011, ndr)". To such care, to the term of the today's reunion the general secretary of the Fiom, Maurizio Landini, has declared that the convocation of the national table to November "is an important fact", that the union asked exactly for a long time, and that in that center it will have to be defined a general picture of the situation of the company.

The Uilm has given two diametrically opposite judgments on the outcome of the today's encounter to Rome: "the reunion today - it has observed the national secretary of the Uilm, Mario Ghini - anticipates two implications: that positive one is based on the signature of decrees on the upset to sea of the site of Fincantieri di Sestri West that we have appreciated. Finally the iter is shut positively for being able to finance the agreement of program for the yard in the Gulf of the Tigullio. The implication negative is given by our worry for the lack of store clerks for the same yard. From to the first decade of November - it has added - we expect here that they reach of the good new in such sense".

According to Uilm, but, that which proclaimed from the Fiom for 21 October it is "a wrong strike". He is mistaken - Mario Ghini and the general secretary of the Uilm of Genoa have explained, Antonio Apa - "because this is the moment to work entirety in order to carry job in the plants and in order to create the conditions because Fincantieri is productive. In an international situation of crisis, he is mistaken to make a strike in order to open a table and, even, to hope that the others join".

Ghini and Apa have concluded emphasizing that "the encounters in 24 calendar October with the company on workloads and then the 9 table of November will not question the agreements already sign aloft Trigoso, Muggiano and Monfalcone", while meantime "will go ahead also confronts for Ancona".
