Unworthy business behavior, layoffs layoffs

Rome, July 5 (askanews) – Bekaert must withdraw the layoffs. That's what FIM Secretary-General Marco Bentivogli said at the end of a meeting at the Ministry of Economic Development for the decision of the Belgian multinational to shut down the company. Figline factory and Incisa Valdarno (Florence) to move to Romania. The company "confirmed at the table the desire to close, announced on June 22."

"In our opinion – underlines Bentivogli – the attitude of the company remains unacceptable for the modalities and especially for the lack of clarity declared at the ministerial table The company closes without any badumption of efficiency of the factory Bekaert a few weeks ago signed the supplement with the unions without giving a minimum sign of the imminent decision to close the Tuscan site, while six months ago he illustrated the slides with a site development program. "

" All this is unacceptable – says the trade unionist – does not joke with the lives of 318 workers and their families and with an establishment has a consolidated history without any warning and motivation, but rather announces investments in the rest of the world at the same time. For all reasoning, the company retires meets and sits at the table with the desire to find a working solution for all the workers of the Tuscan site. "

Minister Di Maio" ensured his maximum commitment alongside the workers by asking the union to suspend the dismissal procedure that will be operational within 61 days, leaving the workers at home. It is unfortunate that a company bought a business three years ago if it is free from any social responsibility and only on March 29 it submitted development plans. "

" At the end of the meeting – adds Bentivogli – at the request for overtime available by Di Maio, the company Bekaert denied any availability. At the moment the workers are at work, denying any withdrawal of the procedure and giving the willingness to accompany (in two months) provided that it does not concern competitors is a farce to which we hope that the Government will react with the greatest force.
