Labor, SINISTRA_SINDACALE

, si conclude con i seguenti punti comuni presentati dalla Presidenza. The assembly of the Cgil militants, convened in Rome on July 23 2008, concludes with the following common points presented by the presidency.

1.
The trend of negotiations in progress, the positions taken by Confindustria and the government, do not leave spaces at mediation: an agreement is not possible. Confindustria and government have spoken of complicity between national enterprises and labor. The comparison and negotiation based on the representation of special interests that try, when possible, land mediation date. The concept of "complicity" is the revival of ideological total commonality of interest between capital and labor, the total subalternità of work to the company.
The story of the contract is emblematic of the trade; workers in the sector and Filcams-Cgil go our support and solidarity that we should characterize the mobilization and fighting union.

2.
The fall of salaries, insecurity and worsening working conditions are the result of the crisis of liberal capitalism in Italy and worldwide. Entire globalization today shows its enormous contradictions. The huge social disparities and injustices that it has produced have to be addressed by measures of change in Canada and Europe. In the face of the aggravation progressive of all the economic indicators of our country, a response that goes beyond the traditional canons of conciliation, wage moderation, removal solutions market. We must restore public intervention and public coordination in economic policies. We must restore, and reorganize welfare functions. We must fight to fund the precariousness of work. We must rapidly increase the real value of salaries and pensions. We need a fund to fight tax evasion and financial speculation in the context of an overall policy of wealth redistribution. These are the basic elements of a new economic and social policy that is out of Italy from stagnation and crisis.

3.
Fundamental point is the recovery of full autonomy resale of the union from the pivotal role that must have national contracts, both to increase the real value of wages, both to strengthen and extend the rights and powers of the world of work. All the more reason not acceptable that national program designed to reduce the purchasing power of wages. The national contract must defend and increase the purchasing power of wages. In the case of sudden growth of inflation, we must ensure that wages and pensions as a form of automatic coverage of purchasing power.
We must change all the labor legislation reaffirming the value and centrality of the contract of indefinite duration. We must reject the offensive of the government and Confindustria that in the name of an increasingly close link between wages and productivity, calls into question the contract and all the national bargaining. We must prevent the health and safety of workers are continually sacrificed on the altar of profit and productivity. The health of those who work comes before anything and the whole organization of work must change to ensure this.

4.
The government has unleashed a frontal attack on the rights of working life, and more generally the rights of people riding xenophobic and racist impulses, attacking the rights of migrants, their families, their children. So are called into question the same constitutional basis of civil coexistence in the country, while at the union becomes the target of settling collective bargaining, on the social policy of deregulation of the European Union .. By Decree 112 and with other measures announced it comes to further extension of precariousness and insecurity at work and preparing a new attack in Article 18. Aggression to the rights of the working public, which is preparing a new wave of privatizations and reductions in school staffing and public services, with equal determination should be rejected. We must stop the campaign Fannullone clearly instrumental to the intended target of human rights throughout the world of work, divide the work by public and private. We need a response to the defense and extension of rights for natives and for migrants, both for men than for women.

5.
It 'requires a profound renewal of the objectives and practices of the Italian trade union movement. The model of general union, which has inspired the Cgil in its hundred years of history, was the site of social representation of the entire world of work and the national contract was the unifying instrument. A stage has been completed, that the conciliation of the nineties. You can not get out of it by choosing to transform the union into a federal union market, adhering to the needs of competitiveness of enterprises and free of contractual capacity. We do not want the transformation of the union in a federal agent services, employment and economic activities. The political struggle in the union for state participation, democracy, the conflict is therefore essential and this is a common commitment to the participants. E 'need for the industrial action is subject to strict rules of democracy, both in training and in the measurement of representation, both in the decision of workers on platforms and agreements. For this we need a law on union democracy.

Participants to the need to consider the trade union movement and in any case, the Cgil promote autumn a large mobilization to reject the attack on labor rights, to defend the wages and the right to bargain, to stop the aggression continues to health and safety. This mobilization should be up to the general strike.
The promoters of the event decide to be in September, on the basis of the comparison between trade unions, Confindustria and the government.
