“In Friuli Venezia Giulia 14,600 workers are not vaccinated or swab”
Estimates of the CGIA of Mestre. And the suspicion is that many employees without are bypassing the rules by going to the office anyway
TRIESTE Unvaccinated workers in Friuli Venezia Giulia would be 66,600. Of these, four out of five undergo multiple times during the week, and one Green swab passes short-term, while one in five remains “uncovered”. The estimates are from the Studies Office of the CGIA of Mestre and include both the public and the private sector. That figure, 66,600 is worth 13.4% of the total employed, the CGIA again specifies. If we remove the 52,000 workers who are available on the road of the repeated swab, and therefore are able to exhibit the Green pass if negative for the coronavirus, 14,600 people without the certificate to go to work, should have caused, due to their absence, at least some problems organizational to companies in the region.
But, observes the CGIA, the local entrepreneurs have not reported anything. The reason? «The feeling is that many employees without a Green Pass have” circumvented “the provisions of the decree, going to the factory or office anyway. The controls, in fact, would not be particularly stringent ».
The suspicion of the Venetian association also arises in consideration of the fact that the number of swabs that can be performed by pharmacies and public and private facilities in Fvg, despite peaks of 20-30 thousand tests per day, is lower than the requests made by workers. In reiterating “with force that only through the increase in the number of vaccinated can we defeat the pandemic and firmly engage the economic recovery”, the CGIA Studies Office also highlights that at the regional level the estimate of the number of employees not yet vaccinated sees the Province of Bolzano in the lead with 42,150 no vax, equal to 17.5% of the total employed. This is followed by Sicily with 204,605 employees without any vaccine (15.7%), the Marche with 91,105 non-immunized workers (15.1%) and Valle d’Aosta with 7,872 (15%). The Fvg, with 66,621, ranks eighth on a national basis. The macro area where the situation is most critical is the South: the estimated number of employees without vaccine is close to 767 thousand employed, 13.1% of the audience.
The CGIA specifies that the report also includes the public sector. In the region, between health and school personnel, army and law enforcement, public employment, ministerial and university staff, there are 85 thousand workers. Specifically in the single sector, which includes about 12 thousand employed in the Region and Municipalities, Orietta Olivo, head of the public function of the regional CGIL, assumes the unvaccinated “around 10-12%”, numbers a little higher than the rest of Italy where 10% was the estimate at the beginning of October contained in the explanatory report accompanying the Dpcm signed by Prime Minister Mario Draghi which notes the return in the presence of public administration staff starting from 15 October.
In the Region, the councilor for local autonomies Pierpaolo Roberti explains, the estimates are complicated, if not impossible. «In the first week of application of the decree that imposes the green pass at work, only one worker was found, during the checks, without the required certificate – says Roberti – and there are a few dozen, out of about 3,200 in total, those who presented proof of absence due to the lack of the green pass . After that, those who exhibit it may have also had a tampon in the previous 48 hours. We are not allowed by law to ascertain whether they are vaccinated or not ». To complicate the hunt for numbers, adds the commissioner, there is also the fact that at the Palazzo there is the obligation to consume holidays by 31 October, and many, in this period, are at home for that very reason . Immunized or not? Impossible to know for sure.
Finally, the lack of vaccinations among carabinieri, policemen, agents of the Penitentiary, Yellow Flames, military, categories, among other things, with the right to priority in the anti Covid campaign should be around 20%. One in five between no vax and hesitant “is a plausible estimate”, confirms the prefect Valerio Valenti without going into the merits of why in those sectors there is such a high rejection of the vaccine.
