(ANSA) - Rome, September 16 - A new jobless benefits system
must be in place as of 2015, Premier Matteo Renzi told the
Senate Tuesday. "Our labor law needs radical change so
ideological derbies no longer take center stage," he said. "We
must also simplify jobless benefits rules and guarantee
unequivocal and identical safeguards for all". As well, the
premier said that those who would "apply the Spanish model" in
Italy are mistaken. "Reducing the cost of labor makes sense, but
cuts in wages are out of the question," the premier said.
