The bogus purposes of the unions on green passes and vaccines

The bogus purposes of the unions on green passes and vaccines

Why trade unions are wrong on the green pass according to the columnist Giuliano Cazzola

That the trade union leaders of the historic confederations have been drinking their brains is a new national drama that we have been witnessing in dismay for days; so much so that a space trip to the moon is being prepared to go and retrieve that gray matter from the cluster, like what the paladin Astolfo did for Orlando who had lost his mind.

However, we see that the anti-green pass madness is a very contagious variant of Covid-19 because – it is said – there would be in the government (but also among scientists) a current of thought that would like to make the most bizarre idea its own. in circulation by Maurizio Landini and immediately repeated by the proxies of other organizations: to make vaccination mandatory by law to give an alibi to the unions.

I hope that Mario Draghi does not fall into the trap and understands that this choice is an attempt to postpone – to father dead – those precautionary measures that would be indispensable from 1 September: to guarantee the reopening of companies and the resumption of work in relative safety without having to create clusters of conflict for access to canteens.

Basically, in the company as in other communities one enters only by demonstrating the certification of the vaccine administration or the attestations of the negativity of a swab carried out in the previous 48 hours.

Of course, even such a norm needs regulatory support; but in the meantime it would be the companies that, following the directives given by their associations, would act accordingly.

This would be a more flexible solution and certainly also respectful of the uncertainties of the bohvax, as the green pass would be a necessary requirement to perform certain actions and activities which, however, may not even be part of the daily life of different people, perhaps a bit stubborn. and willing in the few cases of social life to present themselves with the result of the swab.

Thinking of a bill that imposes mandatory vaccination, in the first place would not solve the certification problem, because it would not be enough to '' assume '' that the obligation has been fulfilled, as required by law; then there should be sanctions for the violation of the obligation that could not fail to affect the continuity of the employment relationship as well.

The syllogism would even be trivial: the pandemic continues to be dangerous to the point of forcing the state to force all citizens to get vaccinated; however, there are people required to secure themselves and the community to which they belong who do not want to do it without any valid reason; consequently they must be isolated and sanctioned, even in the workplace.

Even if the government provided by decree law, there would always be 60 days for conversion. Therefore, there is a risk of ending up in the middle of the budget session, which monopolizes parliamentary activity until the relative law is approved.

The unions – Astolfo has not yet returned to bring back the brains of leaders – would have a good game to stop everything pending the rules. And the same thing would do many people who until now have remained cooking in the broth of fake news.
