La audience of exodates it's getting larger. In the 2013-2014 two-year period another 8.900 workers will accrue the right to a pension and they will have to be safeguarded to prevent them from being left without any income (neither salary nor social security allowance) due to the new rules introduced last winter by the reform signed by Elsa Fornero. These are people excluded from those 120 workers so far "safeguarded" by the government with an allocation of around 9 billion. The additional cost for the State would be 440 million euros.
This was revealed by the INPS data presented yesterday by the Minister of Labor to the Labor Commission of the Chamber. The news was disclosed by Giuliano Cazzola, an expert on social security and a member of the competent committee for the PDL in Montecitorio.
Meanwhile, it seems that the government is working to bring down the bipartisan bill which envisaged a more substantial expansion of the number of redundancies and a return to old-age pensions, because it was not financially sustainable and was rejected by the Accounting Office due to lack of coverage.
Protection for the new 8.900 expatriates will instead be included, through an ad hoc fund, in one or more provisions of the stability law under discussion. At the moment the government has allocated 100 million for exodus workers in 2013. There are still 340 million left until 2014.
