Workers vaccinated or not?
Waiting for a decision from the government and the League’s position is still pending. What is the orientation of trade associations and distribution companies? « Workers Insurance – Advertise Donatella Brambolini, President FIDA-Confcommercio – Also means a stipulation that a vaccination or green pass must be given. We believe it is essential to provide this commitment to all employees who work in supermarkets and food stores nearby.” However, Brampolini specifies that companies are waiting for government regulation, because – he explains – “the current legislation does not even allow us to ask who has been vaccinated, but we know that already within the workers, tensions are beginning to arise between those who have been vaccinated and those who have not.”
FederDistribuzione and Coop: “Yes to the Green Corridor commitment”
On the same wavelength too FederDistribuzionethat collects these strings Esselunga, Pam, Lidl and Carrefour. “We are in favor of extending the Green Corridor commitment to employees of large distribution companies – said the president Alberto Frausen It is an essential tool to ensure the safety of collaborators. We ask that the mandatory nature of the green card be accompanied by clear rules for companies and workers and that companies not bear burdens and costs.” Until the cooperative group He says yes to the green lane. “We are in favor of introducing rules for green card use to those who work with the public, and therefore also to our employees – reporting the note – and all solutions Increasing the proportion of vaccinated, leaving tampons with a marginal integrative role.
