Recruitment, mobility, assessment and contract. These are the four priorities on which the Government and the Unions have established a technical discussion for the purpose of unblock a now 7-year long stalemate for the renewal of the contract
The Minister of Pa Marianna Madia has established a procedure: from today to mid-September the meetings between the Executive and the union confederations will continue. Immediately afterwards we will move on to drafting the address document which will be sent to Aran in the second week of September.
Finally, the consolidated text of the public employee will arriveor, the presentation of which could take place in January 2017, one month before the expiry of the proxy.
The discussion currently underway at Palazzo Vidoni, based on the latest rumors, had as its central theme the possibility of modifying the criteria for distributing the incentives. Goodbye rainy prizes, without distinction of merit between one employee and another. In future, awards will only be given to those who do their job well.
As for recruitment, it is expected selective turnover which allows for the use in the PA of only the professionals who serve on the basis of needs, on the model of school teachers.
Another topic on which Minister Madia should discuss with the trade unions concerns second-level bargaining, that is to say the productivity bonuses which according to the law are assigned to 25% of employees.
At this juncture it is necessary to mention the rumors published today by Corriere della Sera according to which the draft of the new Consolidated Law on Public Employment would contain two important innovations which, if approved, could upset one of the cornerstones of the Italian labor market: the greater security guaranteed to employees public versus private ones.
Based on what was reported by the newspaper in via Solferino, with the ok to the decree, the workers of the PA will have to say farewell to the certainty of the "permanent position" but also to the automatic salary increase with seniority increments. "Every year - writes the Corriere quoting the document - all administrations must notify the ministry of the "surplus of personnel" with respect to the "functional needs or financial situation". Put bluntly, employees who are not needed or who the budgetary situation does not allow to keep in charge.”
As regards seniority instead, after the long period of freezing, according to forecasts they could be canceled forever. Employees will be evaluated annually by their superiors. On the basis of those evaluations, the increases will be assigned, which in any case cannot exceed 20% of the workers of each administration
