Today, March 23, the 10th anniversary of the large demonstration the CGIL organized against the reform of Article 18, forcing the then Berlusconi administration to withdraw the bill, the Council of Ministers of the Monti administration will approve the reform of Article 18, aiming for a “relatively quick adoption,” but only after Monti sends the text to the trade unions. Experts say the reform of Article 18 is a step back for Italian labor law, back to 1966, when the obligation to rehire workers was adopted to remedy the “failure” of the Dismissal Act of July 1966 which, in case of economic dismissal without a fair cause, only provided for compensation – as does the new amendment.
