A December 12 general strike
called by CGIL, UIL and UGL union federations must not affect
national air and rail traffic or local public transport, the
national strike authority said Monday.
The move means any sector unions that strike anyway will be
in breach of the law.
The authority said a railway strike on that day would
contravene rules that say 10 days must go by between
transportation strikes in each sector, since labor actions had
already been called for December 13 and 14.
The same goes for air transport, where workers at Rome's
Fiumicino airport had organized action on December 15.
For the same reason - that is, due to previously announced
strikes in December that would fall too close to the December 12
date - public transport unions in the regions of Lazio and
Sicily as well as the cities of Crotone, Florence, Potenza and
Trento must also abstain from striking on December 12, the
authority said.
