Jobs Act, alfaniani defeated: now the majority is divided – the Journal

Following the green light to the first two decrees of the Jobs Act , are outside the discontent and divisions. On the one hand there is the deep disappointment of alfaniani, the other songs of victory of the left dem. To Matteo Renzi is not a revolution as he had wanted to believe. The status of workers changes, but not as deeply as had been heralded. It remains, in fact, the reinstatement. Now promises a clash entirely within the most which could also lead to unpleasant tripping for the government.

According to the two decrees, dismissed by the Council of Ministers on Christmas Eve are guaranteed protections growing for new contracts, changes the rules for layoffs and compensation for new contracts replaces the reinstatement provided for by ‘ Article 18 . It remains, of course, the replenishing in the face of a “conviction” for unfair dismissal. Contrary to what is required by the New center-right, the employer can not override the sentence with a maxi compensation.

Beyond the statements in the heat, the lack of ‘ opting out , ie the possibility for the employer to “overcome” the reinstatement with maxi compensation , sent on a rampage the alfaniani. Not to the point to get to the government crisis, as he had threatened in recent days Maurizio Sacconi. Also because Renzi was quick to ensure that “the text of the decrees is open to the contribution of the parliamentary committees” . For the Minister of the Interior Angelino Alfano remains, however, a stinging defeat.

“Merry Christmas Sacconi” , you are allowed to joke on Twitter Robert Hope. “They seemed to be the conditions for a courageous act – replied Sacconi – instead we have a complicated discipline, untranslatable in English, of uncertain application, limited to new contracts. The mountain has given birth to a mouse in short while they remain present all symptoms the economic and social depression “. More moderate, however, Fabrizio Cicchitto but did not hide his disappointment: “The Jobs Act, as approved by the government, is characterized by two elements: one is an absolute quantum leap as regards collective redundancies and instead there is a compromise as regards individual dismissals. This explains the elements of consensus and also some reservations made by Ncd but compared to the complex of the measure is not defeated “.
