The \u201cSos Caporalato\u201d campaign by Fai Cisl against exploitation in agri-food work was presented today in Rome.<\/p>\n
"In addition to fighting, together with other organizations, in the appropriate institutional venues - explained the General Secretary of Fai Cisl, Onofrio Rota - we are starting this civil campaign with the aim of collecting, via toll-free number and social media, the complaints of those who work in conditions of exploitation and illegality in the agri-food sector. All the reports will be invaluable for obtaining a general monitoring of the evolution of the phenomenon and for giving a voice to many workers who are victims of gangmastering".<\/p>\n
The toll-free number for the campaign, active from today, is 800.199.100. \u201cThat 199 is also very symbolic,\u201d Rota said, \u201cbeing the number of the law against gangmastering, and it also reiterates the campaign\u2019s informative and divulgative meaning, given that the law is still little known by the people involved.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Deputy Secretary General of the CISL, Luigi Sbarra, defined the initiative as a \u201cproject of great subsidiary, political and symbolic importance\u201d. \u201cThe battle of the Fai and the CISL \u2013 declared the trade unionist \u2013 continues for the full application of the participatory and preventive leg of law 199, won almost two years ago thanks to a great national mobilization of the agricultural work world. It is necessary to implement the social levers in the territories for a better management of the labor market, push for the rewards linked to the adhesion of companies to the Network of quality agricultural work, reconfirm the agreements on system projects. The guard of our union \u2013 concluded Sbarra in his speech \u2013 remains high on possible attempts to dismantle the good things done up to this point\u201d.<\/p>\n
