As soon as the dignity decree was approved, it is already a case in the government. The League pushes for changes: it wants the return of vouchers at least for agriculture and changes to fixed-term contracts after the outcry of the business world in unison. Confindustria, Confcommercio and Confartigianato attack the new provision and argue that it will bring bureaucratic complications, considerable litigation in the Court and will depress new hires. All this while the tourist season is in full swing and companies are worried about fixed-term contracts that have already been defined: the crackdown introduced by the dignity decree will apply "to new contracts", but also to those "in progress", albeit limited to any of their "extensions and renewals". In the viewfinder would be above all the reasons, reintroduced by measure desired by Luigi Di Maio. And so the League, pushed by farmers and SMEs from the North is ready to assault the decree in Parliament. To become effective, the provision must be signed by the President of the Republic Mattarella (travelling in the Baltic countries) and then the 60 days will start for conversion into law. And here the push for changes is triggered.
The pressing of the League, in difficulty with its voters, has begun and it was Matteo Salvini who opened the dance on the amendments to the decree: "It is a good start and Parliament will try to make it more efficient and productive", said the minister yesterday of the Interior, who added: "The vouchers for seasonality must be reintroduced, primarily in the agricultural sector".

Just the vouchers are the most indigestible morsel for the pentastellati who have set fire to flames against the payment instrument of casual workers when they were in opposition, supporting the referendum promoted by the CGIL and forcing the Gentiloni government to make a quick about-face. And it is almost a paradox that the "government of change" wants to start from there. Minister Gian Carlo Centinaio, upon leaving Montecitorio, explained what the next steps will be: “The goal is to make the head of Labor and Economic Development understand that vouchers in agriculture are needed, agriculture requires them. From the moment of my first utterance in this sense, all the trade associations immediately agreed with us ". So vouchers in first place in the upcoming changes but there is also a lot of attention on the rules that provide for a maximum duration of 24 months for fixed-term contracts and no more than 36, with the reasons returning from the first renewal after the first 12 months " free". As we said, the causal is in the sights of the League which also has doubts about the indemnity in the event of dismissal, which has risen to 36 months and no longer to 24.
And DiMaio? The minister – apparently far from Matteo Salvini too on the issue of INPS and its president Boeri, after the controversy over the contribution of migrants to the balance of the social security system - puts his hands forward against the watering down of "his" decree: "Parliament is sovereign, if the changes go towards improvement they will find strength in the 5 Star Movement policy open to dialogue. If, on the other hand, we want to water down the rules we have written, then the 5 Star Movement will be a barrier".
