Enel and the regional structures of the CGIL, Cisl and Uil unions in Latium signed an agreement, on January 27, on the creation of the Confederal Regional Observatory on the group’s industrial, environmental and employment policies in the region.  The Observatory was officially launched on January 30.  the idea was born during a meeting requested by the trade unions aiming to monitor the progress made by the innovative system of employee safety management, introduced at Enel’s plant in Torrevaldaliga Nord (Civitavecchia) by an agreement signed in 2010 following previous agreements on the subject (see our dispatch No.  080392).  This agreement combines technological performance for the protection of the environment with the increase in the management of staff security within Enel and subcontracting firms.  Confirming their will to aim for “zero accidents at work,” the signing parties promise that this Observatory will be an “instrument for dialogue and debate” enabling a search for “any possible convergence on the group’s strategies” in the region.
