Uil against the Municipality: “It has been there for 200 years, it is not an unexpected event.” And today reinforcements arrive from the local police of Venice

SAN DONà

Fiera del Rosario, the expenses for the local police to be borne by municipal employees. The unions raise a heated controversy over the overtime and working hours of the local police. Mario Ragno, general secretary of Uil Fpl Veneto, starts the attack believing that the Municipality of has not been able to organize the local police service in time for the fair. “The historical event that has been repeated since 1814 cannot be considered an emergency or an exceptional event” he begins, “The trade unions and the RSU were convened only a few days before the beginning to request a special project involving the local police with shifts service increases, economic compensation to be borne by the productivity fund of all employees of the Municipality, as if they were organizing the wedding of the landlord, making their “servants” pay the expenses. «Obviously everything was returned to the sender» he adds «there is an agreement with the Municipality of Venice for mutual aid in case of need for demonstrations and exceptional events, with the command of personnel to one or the other Municipality. We said like Uil, given the rejection of the Fiera Project, to organize the service in this way. We would not understand otherwise, the reason for an agreement with the Municipality of Venice. They could also have asked other municipalities to increase their staff in those days, but, of course, requesting to organize the service at the last minute, this has become impossible. We have warned the municipal administration to employ staff who do not comply with the employment contract, especially for overtime work, which cannot be scheduled for non-exceptional events, given that the Fair is over 200 years old.

We will take action in the appropriate places to avoid the repetition of these behaviors and for the protection of workers ».
