"Thanks to the joint effort of the regional group of the 5 Star Movement and the M5S senators of Campania, we will be able to give the best possible gift to the thousands of workers in our region and to the many in the rest of the country whose last form of support is about to expire at the end of long and exhausting disputes. Last night we managed to get the Finance and Treasury Committee to approve the amendment to the tax decree that extends the 12-month extension of the mobility treatment in derogation to workers employed in companies located in complex crisis areas. A measure that, after approval by the Senate and the Chamber, will also be extended to workers who have ceased or are ceasing mobility, both ordinary and in derogation, from 22 November 2017 to 31 December 2018. And it will not be a simple breath of fresh air. The amendment provides that active policy measures be applied to the workers involved at the same time, to be identified through regional training projects aimed at reintegration into the labor market". This is what the M5S regional councilor and member of the Productive Activities Commission Gennaro Saiello and the senator and member of the Palazzo Madama Labor Commission Sergio Puglia announced.
“For years – Puglia and Saiello recall – we have been following the events of thousands of workers in Campania, who have been regularly taken for a ride by the last regional government and the previous ones with promises that served to keep alive a squalid blackmail to be used in the election campaign. This era is over. We have shown that our actions are not limited to spot announcements. We have brought facts to the hundreds of workers we have met in recent months and restored their dignity. Our commitment will now be focused on ensuring that, in concert with our Government and with the involvement of the regional administration, which we will never stop breathing down their necks, discussions will be started to identify recovery plans for all those companies that have been forced to resort to mobility tools, so as to relaunch the productive fabric of our region and replace all the social safety net measures with real work. Only in this way will Campania finally be able to restart and act as a driving force for the South and the rest of the country”.
