The association of Italian
municipalities ANCI said Thursday Italy's towns and cities were
set to start hiring temp staff on new permanent contracts,
starting with 20,000 temps.
"Starting on January 1 2018 and for the next three-year
period it will be possible to proceed to the stabilisation of
staff in local agencies who had been hired on flexible
contracts," ANCI said, referring to a reform by Civil Service
Minister Marianna Madia.
ANCI estimated at "around 20,000 the units of staff
involved".
The programme covers the whole public sector but will focus
on local jobs, it said.
It said it had drawn up a guide to "assist the municipal
councils".
