Whirlpool confirms the closure of the collective dismissal procedure for the Naples site.
“Despite the extension of the procedure agreed last September with the parties, it was not possible to find an agreement”, the company explains. The decision was made at the last meeting regarding the final phase of the collective dismissal procedure for the Naples site, which began on July 15 and was subsequently extended on September 28 until October 15 in agreement with the Government and trade unions.
“During the meeting – the company underlines in a note – an update was presented on the possible reindustrialization project hypothesized for the area of the site of via Argine. The company, while acknowledging the efforts made by the Government and the Region to find suitable solutions to allow a new industrial mission for the Naples site, regrets that the projects presented are still in a phase not compatible with the needs and timeframes expressed by the company on several occasions and most recently reiterated in the meeting of September 28.
For the reasons stated above, the Company considers the procedure pursuant to Law 223/91 initiated on 15 July to have been definitively concluded on 15 October without any agreement. The company – it continues – has unilaterally undertaken not to proceed with sending the dismissal letters until 22 October, as declared during the hearing held yesterday and relating to the appeal promoted by the Trade Unions pursuant to art. 28 of Law 300/1970″.
Whirlpool reiterates in any case the already formulated offer of incentives for the exit of 85.000 euros to all workers or the transfer to the production unit of Cassinetta di Biandronno (VA), as well as the availability to continue the negotiations for the transfer of the assets.
Whirlpool NAPLES, MINISTER Giorgetti: “Company adamant, let’s continue with the consortium”
“Unfortunately, things didn't go as we wanted and we saw an unyielding rigidity on Whirlpool's part”. These are the words of the Minister of Economic Development Giancarlo Giorgetti, at the end of the meeting on Whirlpool Napoli at the Mise, in which the company confirmed its intention to close the dismissal procedure.
Giorgetti did not hide “the irritation” of the government but has guaranteed its commitment to ensure that the consortium's project for the reindustrialization of the Naples site “do not waste it and materialize quickly”. “We need to recontact the subjects who have given their availability in a different context – he underlined – because the company’s availability has lapsed”. Giorgetti then reported that he will discuss the issue with Prime Minister Mario Draghi. “We have done what we could do – he stated – we are working to give substance to the consortium”.
"Although they had announced their presence and despite the seriousness of the situation, at the last procedural meeting with Whirlpool, which ended with no agreement, ministers Giorgetti and Orlando limited their participation to a brief online connection. We hope that at the next meeting on Tuesday things can go differently and that the Government will bring a concrete proposal capable of avoiding layoffs", they point out Gianluca Ficco e Vincenzo Accurso of the Uilm.
"The Government must finally demonstrate that it has the ability or the will to influence employment disputes. In any case, we will not give up, we will continue to fight to ask the Government to finalize the relaunch project for the Naples site and we will continue to pursue all possible avenues against Whirlpool, including legal action."
Caivano – An arrest that brings to light one of the most dramatic pages in Neapolitan news. Yesterday, the Carabinieri snapped handcuffs on Ciro Migliore, a 27-year-old already known to law enforcement, during a drug raid in Caivano's green park. The man, identified as an alleged drug dealer, is the same young transgender man who was the boyfriend of Maria Paola Gaglione, the 16-year-old who died in the accident in September 2020. The tragedy, which shocked the entire community, was caused by the victim's brother, Michael Gaglione. As established in the trial, the man, opposing his sister's relationship, chased the couple on a motorcycle. During the chase, the scooter on which Maria Paola and Ciro Migliore were riding crashed, causing the young woman's death. Michele Gaglione was sentenced to 9 years and 6 months in prison for manslaughter. Yesterday's arrest by the police adds a dark piece to Migliore's story. The military raided his home, finding evidence of what appears to be a well-organized drug dealing ring: among the findings, 10 pre-packaged doses of cocaine and crack, packaging material and a "lmaster book" with initials and numbers, likely the accounts from the illegal sale. €1.675 in cash was also seized, presumably the proceeds of the illicit activity. The September 16th investigation is not the first drug dealing investigation involving Ciro Migliore after the death of his girlfriend; already in February 2021, he was targeted by law enforcement for similar crimes. The arrest closes a tragic cycle, where a family loss is intertwined with stories of deviance and illegality.
