New strike at Panini in Modena. After the strike on September 4, the workers of the global figurine production giant are once again crossing their arms. The Slc-Cgil and Fistel-Cisl unions, together with the RSU of Modena and Milan and the Cdr Giornalisti Milano, have proclaimed an eight-hour strike to protest against the reduction in smart working days, which the company wants to pass from two days to one a week, from 88 to 44 days in total per year.
A picket line is also planned in front of the company’s headquarters in Modena, from 8.30 to 12.30. After the demonstration at the beginning of the month, “which saw a 90% participation, with empty offices and 150 employees present at the picket – the unions explain -, the company has not made any contact with the workers’ representatives, so in this morning’s workers’ meeting it was decided to continue with the mobilization”. In particular – Slc-Cgil and Fistel-Cisl highlight – “the workers are asking to maintain the 44 guaranteed days per year” of smart working, and “the additional 44 additional annual days; restore the 44 annual days guaranteed to managers; make the agreement on agile working definitive and no longer experimental and confirm the evaluation of particular cases for extraordinary needs”.
