The bishop of Caserta Pietro Lagnese will be with the workers of the multinational Jabil on Monday, May 190st for a mass that will be celebrated in the church of San Giovanni Paolo II in Marcianise, a municipality in the Caserta area where the US company's plant is located. A way to show solidarity with the Jabil workers who have been engaged for months in a difficult dispute, with the multinational that has decided to fire 440 workers to bring the workforce of the Marcianise site, currently 250 employees, to XNUMX units.
Currently the dispute is only suspended after the granting on February 28th by the Ministry of Labor of three months of redundancy pay, which will expire on May 31st, a date beyond which Jabil will be able to start sending dismissal letters in the absence of alternative instruments, which have not yet been identified.
Lagnese has repeatedly spoken out in favor of the workers and for the institutions, from the Campania Region to the various ministries involved, to find adequate solutions to safeguard the jobs and the future of many families, also taking into account the fact that for years Jabil has been affected by a production crisis that, the unions have repeatedly emphasized, only concerns the Italian plant in Marcianise; recently Jabil has decided to invest in Croatia, where it should open a plant with over 1500 workers.
