Tomorrow there will be a general strike, and a black Friday for transport is expected, preceded by a Thursday of controversy on the government-union front. Above all, the one triggered by Transport Minister Maurizio Lupi, which yesterday evening issued an injunction order for railway transport workers, on the occasion of the strike called for tomorrow by CGIL and UIL. The CGIL said it was indignant at the government's decision: "The injunction will be respected to protect individual workers - he said the general secretary Susanna Camusso -. However this remains a very serious act and an outstretched intervention against the strike proclaimed over a month ago".
For the day of protest against the measure of the Jobs Act, who is mainly accused by the trade unions of having abolished article 18 of the Workers' Statute, as many as 54 demonstrations are planned throughout Italy to ask, as stated in the trade union platform, "the Government and Parliament to change the labor law and the stability law for the better, putting work, industrial policies and production sectors severely in crisis, defense and the revitalization of the public sectors and the creation of new and good jobs”.
