Unions set out key demands to private health employers

Italy

The presidents and general secretaries of the three main public service federations - FP-CGIL, UIL-FPL and CISL-FP - met with representatives of the two main private health employers' organisations, AIOP and ARIS on 3 May. The meeting was an attempt to resolve a conflict and negotiate the renewal of the collective agreement that was last negotiated 12 years ago. The unions want pay in the private sector aligned with that in the public health collective agreement. They also want a national agreement and so no regional variations. The talks are now suspended while the unions wait for the employers to confirm that there are the financial resources available to fund the agreement.
