Lo air transport strike scheduled for tomorrow, Friday May 19, Was suspended e postponed to June 4th. The mobilization in which the major trade unions had joined was postponed due to the difficult situation in Emilia Romagna, battered by bad weather for a few days. "I would like to thank the trade unions of CGIL, CISL, UIL and Ugl who, following our request, decided to postpone the strike" by planes until June. "Thank you for the sensitivity and prompt acceptance of what was requested", said the Minister of Infrastructure, Matteo Salvini, during the question time in the Senate.

Air strike postponed to June 4: unions at work

"Thank you but as the minister should know from this morning, we are working independently, by our choice, without needing your invitation, to postpone the strike". In no uncertain terms, the secretary general of the Filt CGIL Stefano Malorgio replies to Matteo Salvini, adding that “we know well how trade union rights are exercised in respect of the real country, we have that culture. Rather, we invite the minister - finally Malorgio affirms - not to remember the transport workers only on these occasions ".

The unions contest the "exploitation, starvation wages and precariousness" and ask to "regulate working hours without any increase", providing for "shifts compatible with the private lives of workers without broken shifts".
