Workers not "lemon"

Thursday, December 20, 2007
release of the National Secretariat of SLC-CGIL, CISL-FISTel, UILCOM-UIL following the breakdown of negotiations with Comdata SpA

Unexpected rupture of the negotiations in COMD SpA after a year of careful and conscious work of trade unions and all workers, confirmed by an agreement on stabilization we had high hopes for the next location.

The opening of negotiations on the second level of negotiations took place on the morning of December 18, 2007 has seen the company to make a preliminary very concerned about the market and competition, compared with investment in both technology and in new activities and services that make the company itself probably the second player in this market.

To make the situation more complicated was the first lunge on the issues of trade union platform that was in fact reduced to three topics: the protocol of industrial relations, performance bonuses and verification related to the Stabilisation. Sure enough, the trade union response has been trying to return to the center of the discussion presented in the table platform assembly workers, the reasons why we set that included several other points including framing (to delineate shared pathways), and the meal availability.

We then reinforced the notion asking the company to see if this approach was shared and if he could go into more details on the various issues. Thus, the delegation urged the company requested a suspension to reflect and continue the meeting.

The recovery in the late morning we heard the first response on the company's new platform last November. In the premise we were told that "did not exist when a cake to be shared" positions on the details to follow our demands.

Specifically:

• The performance bonuses to the achievement of targets for profitability and quality had to be built in its self-sustaining economic values.

• inquadramentale The transition from the 3 rd quarter livello non poteva essere effettuato mediante un automatismo ma attraverso una analisi aziendale sulla attività e sulla professionalità;

• Sulla richiesta di refezione non era assolutamente possibile parlare di Buono Pasto (TICKET) né tantomeno fare un ragionamento nazionale sulle mense per poi riportare effetti locali con nuove convezioni, ma si dava disponibilità ad ampliare in spazi e apparati gli ambienti aziendali dedicati alla refezione.

• Sul tema del Controllo a Distanza si dava una disponibilità ad aprire un tavolo per regolare la tematica.

• Sulla reperibilità, pur sottolineando che il tema toccava poche persone, si dava disponibilità to confront.

• On holidays the business need was to have a local branch of flexibility.

• Industrial relations: the company interested in a protocol very slender, has a strong reservation on the costs in terms of hours is allowed for reimbursement.

from the unions at this point it is deemed necessary precedent to assess how to continue the confrontation. The comparison with the trade union delegation has come out with one voice that gave the mandate to deepen point by point to make clear the gap but agree to have a strong dissatisfaction. In pursuing

the first point of the platform, namely the performance bonus, has asked the delegation corporate willingness to think about that for a PDR in June 2008 produced a supply by way of what is produced by workers in 2007 and particularly in the second semester. Now the company has discontinued the unions felt obliged to point out that the bonus was to be built in 2008 for 2009 and that could not make payments in any way by failing to provide any budget item.

The union delegation could not accept this position and this general stiffening company told the delegation that this availability had already emerged in previous meetings and that was considered paradoxical its current demise.

response to concerns expressed by the entire delegation, arrived with the Industrial Union, which argued in a provocative way of not "dealing" with the trade unions.

Considering now exhausted every motivation to continue, the entire trade union delegation stood up and abandoning the treaty by announcing a new phase where they would be the workers themselves to respond to provocation.

Therefore, in view of the events described above workers, the trade unions, and unions, say eight hours of strike on 27 December 2007 for all employees of Comdata and blocking of overtime fino al 31 dicembre 2007.
