Filt Cgil, the new rules on Covid once again penalize seafarers
Colombo: in order to be reunited with their families they will have to bivouac at the airports of arrival or on the piers of our ports
February 9, 2022
"It was rightly introduced - clarified the national leader of the Filt Cgil - the possibility for the non-EU seafarers without a Green Pass, subject to swab carrying out, to be able to access the means of transport to go to the airport and then return to their countries of origin. For Italian seafarers, however, this possibility is precluded because the article in question makes explicit reference only to workers with vaccination certificates issued from foreign countries. So our seafarers disembarked from the ships rather than being able to be reunited with their families, they will have to bivouac at the airports of arrival or on the piers of our ports».
"No appeal of recent days - highlighted Colombo - it has been listened to and we find ourselves at the umpteenth inefficiency that penalizes our workers. Rapid remedying needs to be made what has been legislated with the hope that they will never be registered again such incomprehensible provisions'.
