Petição dirigida a: Petitionsausschuss des Europäischen Parlaments

The petitioner expresses big concern on the problem of growing job insecurity in Italy. The petitioner argues that Italian legislation in this matter does not provide adequate or effective protection against infringements, in violation of European law. According to the petitioner, the situation has not improved following recent labour market reforms in Italy, enacted in 2012 (the Fornero reform) and 2014 (Jobs Act). The petitioner criticises the way in which the European Commission has monitored the situation to ensure Italy’s compliance with Directive 1999/70/EC on fixed-term employment contracts. The petitioner therefore asks the European Parliament to ensure that Italy complies with the relevant European legislation and case law.
