First day of strikes of 2025. Today they stop for 4 hours throughout Italy using local public transport with different times and methods from city to city. Inconveniences also in airports (where for example the workers of Airport Handling of Milan Linate and Milan Malpensa protest; as well as those of Aviation Services at Marco Polo airport in Venice) and in railways with RFI maintenance workers crossing their arms.
Possible Black Friday also for school sector with participation expected for all teaching, educational and ATA staff (hired both on a fixed-term and permanent basis) in the mobilization launched by the Csle (European Workers’ Trade Union Confederation). In local transport, Confail-Faisa stops for 4 hours to denounce “the serious economic and contractual situation faced by thousands of professionals in the sector”. The latest agreement signed by some trade union organizations, underlines the independent acronym, “represents a further affront to the dignity of workers”.
The dispute underlying the strike concerns, among other things, “low and inadequate salaries compared to the increase in the cost of living”; national collective agreements “incapable of enhancing and protecting workers’ rights”; “unsustainable” hours and workloads, which compromise the balance between private and professional life.
