ABI and trade unions (Fabi, Fiba, Fisac, Uilca, Ugl Credito, Dircredito and Sinfub) have reached an agreement for the renewal of the national collective labor agreement for banks, avoiding the danger of an immediate cancellation of the contract. The agreement is in four points and defines the criteria for bringing the distinct element of remuneration to the upper part of the paycheck, the real crux at the center of the negotiations in recent months and the cause of the negotiation deadlock that had caused the expected tabling to be postponed initially for July.
In the first point, the agreement provides for an extension of the cancellation of the contract to 31 December 2014, while the second establishes that the EDR flows into the salary item from 2015 January 2014. The other two points of the contract, however, are useful for defining a one-off payment to compensate for the failure to register the EDR within the envisaged period, and set the date for the settlement of the contracts at XNUMX July XNUMX.
Satisfaction from the unions. According to Lando Maria Sileoni, general secretary of the Fabi, “The ABI thus had to withdraw from its intransigent positions and adopt more lenient advice. The road to renewing the national contract remains long and difficult, but we will face it with determination”. The discussion will resume as early as this morning, while three new meetings have already been scheduled for 20, 27 and 29 October.
