CGIL trade union chief
Susanna Camusso on Monday rebutted remarks made on pension
reform by Economy Minister Pier Carlo Padoan.
Padoan told La Repubblica newspaper in an interview
Saturday that "pensions must be linked to length of time on the
job and life expectancy".
However reforming pensions based on revised life expectancy
figures doesn't account for differences between white- and
blue-collar jobs, Camusso said.
"If life expectancy is the sole criteria...then let's
calculate it based on lines of work, and we will find there are
profound differences between an investment banker and a
steelworker," she said.
