The October 19, 2010 will be remembered as a turning point in the Italian labor law. Final approval of the so-called "Connected work" represents the culmination of a setback for the rights of workers and workers who reported them, basically, back 60 years. (SEE BELOW Summaries).
This is a law that moves parallel to the attack master culminated (for now ...) in the "model Pomigliano" (prohibition of strikes that put into question the agreement Marchionne - CISL e_UIL a ban on sick too, continuous shifts of 7.5 hours, with breaks at the end of turn; tripling of mandatory overtime , etc..) and the termination of the Contract by the metalworkers' national Federmeccanica.
All this resulted, on the one hand, thirty years of capitalist globalization and neoliberal policies (direct cause of the worst economic and financial crisis in 80 years, which claims to solve the more radical attack on employment , rights, the wages and welfare), and, secondly, the trade union confederations concerted policies that have been shown to share many of the myths of neoliberalism (exchange-wage employment published in the abolition of the escalator and cd. "policy income "flexible exchange-employment, which kicked off the legislative measures of job insecurity, etc.)..
situation aggravated by the creation of a truly unified bloc between Confindustria, CISL, UIL and UGL, at least after the signing of a separate agreement in which they were launching the "new model of the national collective agreement." The agreement 22/01/2009 constitutes a kind of legitimacy of the prior model Pomigliano ", in fact it introduced for the first time in Italy, the possibility that the contracts the company are worse than national.
is the next goal is the abolition of the Workers' Statute. Minister Sacconi, after having expressed his satisfaction at the adoption of the "Connected", he immediately announced: "Now the Government will propose to Parliament the draft law on work, to achieve fully the dream of Marco Biagi, a labor law contemporary measure of the person. "(.... after all even the slaves were people!)
One can hope that the 'opposition" parliamentary move immediately and not only after the last possible minute, as it did with respect to "Connected work? Or that the PD, to oppose the government, does not present a bill on work, even worse than his?
E 'frankly hard to do!
One can hope that the struggles taking place in other European countries (notably in France, where there has been the destructive work of self-consciousness perpetrated by unions in Italy concerted action) can become a contagious example.
It may be hoped, first, that the considerable potential which gave the event overflowing strettasi FIOM around Oct. 16 will find a way of building a united movement of opposition.
Although this route, in addition to the negative situation of the balance of power, finds many obstacles in his path. from the apparent absence of even a plausible candidate of an opposition political representation that proposes a new model of economic development, social, environmental, democratic (maramaldeggiare I feel as if I had to make a list of the shortcomings of the organizations policies that stubbornly oppose each other, while declaring that all anti-capitalist. And suffering, the "more" of them, the dependency syndrome by PD. Not to mention the new ropes course at Vendola of the word!). The heavy political conditions of the PD towards a return to the fold with nell'auspicarne CGIL, CISL and UIL, weight dell'elefantiaca bureaucratic structure of the CGIL natural bearer of "moderation", the availability of the idea of \u200b\u200ba confederal leadership new (?) social contract, up to the surreal about Epifani put in conflict with each other and Confindustria Federmeccanica! Apparent impossibility of grassroots unions to give themselves a single path, and thus acquire the objective requirements for "impose" its presence. The difficulties of reconciling the priorities of the opposition of those with class environmentalist opposition, although this area has made some progress, found mostly in the intervention of the National Assembly of the movements Landini 's Public Water.
And many, individual ongoing conflicts in the workplace and on territories are mutually isolated, and thus ineffective.
But many of us to propose the necessary change of direction, but believes several "clusters" (Associations, political organizations or unions) or any of them.
will be able to identify target unit to combat the defense of the Workers' Statute, which the government has already declared war?

SHEET SUMMARY OF THE CONTENTS OF THE "CONNECTED WORK
The most devastating of the" Connected work are:
· ; the possibility (Or the obligation depending on how the Parliament will decide definitively) a waiver of prior to resort to the court in disputes with the employer and commitment to accept the decision of arbitrators private
· the possibility for arbitrators to decide according to equity , disregarding the laws and collective bargaining agreements;
· ; the worker's obligation to pay an advance fee referees (the process of working it's free)
· the possibility for "individual contracts certified (also by employment consultants who regularly work with employers) to derogate from the law and collective agreements , opening space to private bargaining notwithstanding the collective
· the possibility of individual contracts certificates to identify additional grounds for dismissal beyond those set by collective agreements;
· the retroactive effect of binding on the court certificates of compliance to contracts in progress;
· the prohibition of the court from reviewing technical assessments of the organizational and production employers (and thus entering into the merits of the reasons for dismissal, transfer, forward contracts);
· ; 's inability ' to challenge all existing temporary contracts, two months after the entry into force of the law;
· ; the two months to appeal the dismissal hearing (to date there is no limit because it is impossible to prove when the employee was fired "on the item");
· ; a period of two months to appeal a transfer or a forward contract unlawful (now there is no time limit);
· ; a period of six months to start the cause (now there is some term)
· the reduction of compensation for unlawful contracts from two to twelve months but today there is no limit to the damages to the employee.
This law (which would reintroduce a nineteenth-century conception of bargaining, when each worker was just before the master) consistently lowered the mandatory age school and, therefore, anticipates the age of entry into the labor market! It provides for the possibility of fulfill the final year of compulsory education, set at 16 years, with apprenticeships, which then will apply for 15 year olds how to stay in the classroom.
