Poste Italiane (which “expelled” nearly 5,000 seniors through the “family incentive,” i.e. the father or mother leaving their job with the promise that their child would get it), Alitalia (almost 5,000 seniors as well, providing for up to 7 years’ compensation until retirement), Telecom or Alenia, many Italian groups used collective and individual retirement for seniors in recent years. Labor Minister Elsa Fornero says that, because 65,000 people should be concerned, the financial coverage planned to compensate exemptions to the new rules (see our dispatch No. 110800) should be enough. However, unions say this is partial information, especially since the National Social Welfare Institution (INPS) said that almost 130,000 seniors would be affected in the next four years, and since the UGL claims there would be over 350,000 if you include seniors from small businesses who accepted to leave without signing an agreement with the INPS. However, the Minister of Labor announced that the government was looking into “special situations with similar criteria for the possibility of intervention” for the beneficiaries of social dampers alongside retirement, following collective agreements entered into with the government in 2011, to keep following the old rules.
