What happens in Fincantieri on solidarity holidays
What does the agreement on solidarity holidays signed between the management of Fincantieri and the company trade unions envisage. The speech of the national secretary Fim Cisl , Massimiliano Nobis
The agreement signed last March 26, between the management of Fincantieri and the company and national trade unions of FIM, FIOM, UILM on Solidarity Holidays represents a concrete example of solidarity welfare among colleagues.
The agreement incorporates on the one hand a solidarity custom already present for years in some construction sites, and on the other the provisions of Article 24 of Legislative Decree 81/15 and of the 2016 metalworking collective bargaining agreement regarding the discipline of solidarity holidays.
Our country with parental leave and Law 104/92 represents a virtuous example compared to other European countries on the subject of work-life balance, but in many situations that require constant care, the paid leave provided is not sufficient.
For this reason, more and more workers ask us to have "more time" to reconcile the situation of assistance to children or family members in the event of illness or simply for care in growth or assistance.
The agreement signed in Fincantieri is the result of the attention given in recent years to the issue both by the Rsu of the 7 Italian plants and by the company management and goes in the direction of pursuing a greater reconciliation of working life with the needs and requirements of workers, especially in situations of personal and family fragility, with holidays and / or additional permits made available by colleagues, on a voluntary basis and free of charge, to the applicant worker and by the company with establishment agreements.
Solidarity holidays may also be requested by women victims of gender-based violence, with better content than the measures provided for in Law No. 119/13 and the Metalworking National Collective Labor Agreement. The use of Solidarity Holidays will be recognized with respect for privacy.
This agreement strengthens the value of bargaining as a privileged and concrete tool for the protection of the person, both in the working and social dimension.
Today the exchange of work performance and remuneration, which implies the employment contract, can no longer ignore the elements of contractual welfare that give value to extra-work time, from supplementary pensions, supplementary health, safety and forms of solidarity. , such as those of the agreement reached in Fincantieri on holidays, are increasingly qualifying elements of work and the overall well-being of male and female workers that can be achieved only thanks to bargaining.
