The agreement signed by all unions at Mirafiori except Fiom and sifted to a referendum by a narrow margin of votes cast under the blackmail of losing forever the work, is likely to fall back on country in a real “feudalesimo aziendale”.
Quell’accordo, che ogni lavoratore dovrà poi sottoscrivere individualmente se vuole essere riassunto dalla nuova società (NewCo) che nascerà alle Carrozzerie di Mirafiori, prevede una gravissima limitazione del diritto di sciopero e l’abolizione della rappresentanza elettiva a favore di una gestione dei contenziosi affidata ai sindacati firmatari. Ma senza alcun miglioramento delle condizioni di lavoro o della sicurezza dell’occupazione.
Gli operai verranno infatti messi in cassa integrazione, prima ordinaria, poi straordinaria, motivata da un “evento improvviso e imprevisto”, come recita il contratto, che però prevede “l’imprevisto” with absolute certainty. In the meantime - but it is more than a year - will be summoned one by one to be selected and to sign an individual contract binding them inextricably to the terms of the agreement. Many probably will be discarded, because workers in 2012 will have an average age of 48 years, 30 percent are women, and 30 with reduced work capacity can hardly stand the pace of work under the Agreement. Then the NewCo will be set up and only in February 2012, if everything "goes", will begin production of a suv, mounted on flatbed and transmissions and engines manufactured in the USA, to be returned and sold in the U.S. nce mounted. But what sense is this coming and going between Italy and the USA, even if the Fiat plant in Termini Imerese, Sicily, is closed because it was too far away from the component suppliers? The fact is that among the conditions imposed by the climb of Obama to allow Chrysler to Marchionne is to export from the USA and outside the NAFTA (Canada and Mexico) products for at least $ 1.5 billion. Thus, platforms and engines moved (and sold) from Detroit to Turin will contribute as much as possible to the objective. Obvious that this "export" of components will be overcharging and margins of Mirafiori will cut to the bone which may justify subsequent reorganization of the plant. The agreement
Mirafiori, after the one in Pomigliano, the disposal of Termini Imerese, the separation of the car of CNH (tractors and construction equipment) and Iveco (trucks) and the next transformation in NewCo also establishments and Cassino Termoli (Melfi, that Sata is already on his own), in fact a prelude to the dissolution of Fiat Group. Each NewCo, will go on his own. Close, be sold or leased, or work for other brands (like the Fiat Poland, who also works for Ford and will happen to the body of Mirafiori Fiat cars that do not produce more) and become "screwdriver factories" working for others. And then?
Then the crisis is far from being outdated, the finances of three quarters of EU countries are at risk. Consumption stagnated. The European car market (unlike those in the U.S. and Asia) shows no signs of recovery. There is now excess capacity not only in Europe and the USA, but also in Japan, China and Korea, whose producers are now ready to increase their market share in Europe. Some people wondered what the "competitive advantages" which Marchionne expects to sell each year in Europe in more than one million cars manufactured in Italy?
Marchionne and its shareholders, if they manage to complete the climb Chrysler, they can also afford to send workers to the bottom of the Fiat, after having tied with a cord according to their respective establishments. It will derive increased profits and stock options. But the country and all who live of their work can not. The future of the plants, the know-how and labor that are now owned by Fiat does not rest even more on the automotive industry. The sectors that have a future are others: those that lead towards sustainability: renewable energy, energy efficiency, ecoedilizia, regional planning, flexible mobility. And on this point that we
