THEAran (Agency for the Negotiating Representation of Public Administrations) and the unions during the night they signed the agreement that reduces the sectors of the public sector from twelve to four. The agreement was reached at the end of a river meeting that lasted 17 hours.
To safeguard specific professional skills within the sectors, everyone will have his own contract, a "common" part may be accompanied by "special" parts. As for trade union representation within the new sectors, a transitional phase is foreseen, without prejudice to the last elections of the RSU, but the threshold of 5% of proxies and votes remains unchanged.
The agreement streamlines the apparatus of organizations linked to the public sector and offers unions the opportunity to put the issue of renewing public contracts back on the table. An opportunity that the CGIL he decided not to let slip, as made clear by the communiqué released by the trade union acronym: “Now the government no longer has an alibi. Renew i public contracts and do it right away."
The reduction of the public sectors, according to the CGIL, is “an important agreement, a result that we have tenaciously sought. We are the ones who have never shared the Brunetta law, who have fought in recent years for the reduction of contracts to follow the logic of homogeneous aggregations by sector and thus arrive at the definition of a single contract for Health, to Local functions, for all Central functions and for Knowledge of ".
A simplification whose objective, which is reiterated, is that of "renewing contracts, and relaunching sector policies to improve the quality of services rendered to citizens". Furthermore, the wish of the unions "is that the sector contracts, which for now constitute public supply chains, can also be integrated with the private sectors".
For the Minister of Public Administration Marianna Madia, this agreement represented the missing piece before returning to the negotiating table for the renewal of contracts in the public sector, which have currently been blocked for six years.
Tonight closed agreement on reduction to 4 compartments #SHOVEL. Simpler and more innovative contractual system for public workers and the country.
