A state of agitation and a stop to overtime and any form of flexibility. This is the decision taken yesterday by the assembly of the Pisan workers of the Menarini group: 530 employees contested the motivations of the multinational's management to justify the cut plan announced in recent days. "We still don't know - explains Paolo Centamore, of the Femca / Cisl secretariat of Pisa - the details on which sites will be most affected by the company provision. We hope we are wrong, but if the cuts are linear, many employees in Pisa also risk their jobs".
Of the 530 employees of the Pisan group, 370 informants and 42 administrative employees work in the Guidotti Laboratories, over 80 are employees of Lusochimica (manufacturers of active ingredients), 20 of Menarini Manufacturing (engaged in the production of diluents for diagnostic instruments) and 20 are researchers. The trade unions Filctem Cgil, Femca Cisl and Uilcem Uil have requested a meeting with the local institutions and have received from the workers the mandate to initiate "all the struggle initiatives necessary to safeguard the jobs Work".Pharmaceutical company Menarini, workers' strike 11 October 2012
