One form of exploitation and discrimination is perpetuated in public schools. It 's the latest book by Vincent Brancatisano thesis, "One Life to alternate. The exploitation of precarious work in the Italian school "(New Worlds editor) who is about to become the manifesto of precari: è un lungo viaggio in un precariato estremo, che sarebbe ritenuto riprovevole e deprecabile se fosse riferito al mercato del lavoro privato.
Centinaia di migliaia di insegnanti precari, è la tesi del volume, vengono spremuti e mal pagati da un datore di lavoro, lo Stato, che scrive leggi contro lo sfruttamento e la violazione dei diritti. Vincenzo Brancatisano - docente e giornalista - fa emergere una realtà italiana allarmante: migliaia di lavoratori vengono assunti e cacciati via da scuola anche decine di volte nell’arco di un’intera carriera lavorativa e cambiano ogni anno classi, sedi e colleghi con grave danno per intere generazioni di studenti che, a loro volta, non capiscono il motivo del dissennato valzer which professors are forced to watch all the time.
In a climate of real "institutional bullying", the temporary workers are constantly humiliated by laws illogical and absurd rankings do not count where the merit and talent of those who are called to teach, but mortifying criteria which, among others, participate in expensive courses by correspondence (of dubious reliability), having taught at sites located above the six hundred meters above sea level even allows you to double the score of service.
The incredible babel of discrimination with the professors is appalesa through careful reading of the collective agreement signed by the school unions i quali hanno sempre evitato di fornire agli iscritti le informazioni necessarie per prendere coscienza degli strumenti che, pure, la legge prevede sia a tutela sia a compensazione degli abusi subiti. La disparità passa attraverso diversi e impensabili aspetti della vita lavorativa. Si va da quelli più severi a quelli (apparentemente) futili: si pensi ai permessi per lutto familiare, laddove ai docenti di ruolo spettano tre giorni per ogni evento mentre ai docenti precari spettano tre giorni in totale: scegliere se partecipare ai funerali del padre o a quelli della madre non è un’esperienza augurabile ma i sindacati d’accordo con la controparte, sono riusciti a consacrare anche questa odiosa differenza. E che dire dell’accesso al credito agevolato presso l’ente previdenziale? Ai docenti di ruolo è permesso un credito agevolato per l’acquisto della casa attraverso il Fondo Credito, finanziato con i soldi prelevati forzosamente nella busta paga degli iscritti, di ruolo e precari, come emerge dal cedolino dello stipendio. Ma se un precario chiedesse anche cento euro di prestito si vedrebbe rigettata la domanda perché lavoratore a tempo determinato. In sostanza, il precario finanzia la prima e anche la seconda casa del proprio collega di ruolo, nonché a tutte le iniziative sociali dell’ente, ma egli stesso non potrà accedervi né evitare di pagare per gli altri. E ancora, il precario della scuola non ha il diritto di candidarsi nelle Rsu, può solo votare e One could go on indefinitely.
But that salary is the main focus of violations of non-discrimination principle enshrined in clause 4 of the Framework Agreement annexed to Directive 1999/70/EC which aims to prevent abuse of fixed-term contracts, implemented in Italy art. 6 of Legislative Decree no. 368/2001. The state maintains a precarious annual perennial 140,000 teachers and 100,000 non-teaching. On one side loses, because it pays them a set of compensation for unemployment and lack of enjoyment of summer vacation and severance pay in advance. But speculating on non-salary and career progression. Even after decades of reports on the precarious period of the school, faculty and staff, earn money Unlike the first appointment to the role of colleagues (as happened in recent days with the last incremental salary brackets) see regular salary increase. This is the motive. And this is precisely the point. The question is: how come all these years the unions have accepted the discrimination, allowing collective bargaining to exclude the progression of salaries to temporary workers?
The truth is that the ordinary courts, following a well-established jurisprudence, is giving reason for the precarious sued alleging the illegality of discrimination described recently. The Court of Justice of European Communities in Luxembourg has its own important decisions with the principle of non discrimination. These judgments were inspired by dozens of Italian courts, from Livorno to Orvieto from Rome to Treviso, Siena, Tivoli, Brescia, from North to South in a way to effectively track the pages of the book, which has already helped Many people turn to the courts. The judges, almost with disdain aside collective agreements that hurt the school's precarious, condemned to repeat the Ministry of Education recognizing, according to the requests of the lawyers of the applicants: a) the seniority and salary, and the conversion of limit determined by report; damages. The latter is explicitly provided for the Italian law - without those affected as they have never learned from their unions - as compensation for non-conversion relationship for an indefinite period, compensation imposed by Community legislation in this way is intended to prevent abuses in the public sector where unions tend to believe that rights are less protected than the private sector, on the automatic conversion of the report. "This is an alleged right," continues to repeat the CISL school on the seniority of temporary workers, irrespective of the fact that the judgments in favor are now a raging river. Joins insult to injury, since these are rights that are prescribed for inertia.
Quanto al risarcimento del danno, una precaria della scuola ha ottenuto dal Tribunale di Orvieto un risarcimento di 45.000 euro per i suoi 9 anni di precariato abusivo. Peraltro, un ipotetico riconoscimento massivo dei diritti in questione farebbe venir meno il movente per il quale lo Stato datore di lavoro mantiene nel precariato i dipendenti della sua scuola. Un precariato che non paga sul piano dei diritti dei lavoratori e nemmeno su quello dell’efficacia dell’offerta formativa.
“Ma attenzione, c’è una trappola!”, annuncia Brancatisano. Il 22 gennaio 2011 scadono i termini per adire le vie giudiziarie, poiché il recente decreto collegato lavoro approvato dal governo Berlusconi ha ristretto (sul piano temporale and on the quantity) the practicability of the scope of judicial compensation for temporary workers. "So who's in on that date, is inside, those outside will be further damaged." And it is remarkable that only in recent days the unions are not informing their members on a temporary law that the risk of loss to convicted inertia of those who pretend to defend them choosing instead to defend the workers are already protected, those with tenure. Moreover, if, in protest, the precarious climb on roofs, in favor of this choice almost extreme to traditional marches and occupation of squares, mean something - Brancatisano writes in the book - The situation now explosive precarious school must make us reflect on the responsibilities of unions in the school, if only to highlight the ineffectiveness of their action. " Brancatisano - already the author, inter alia, of four books on Luigi Di Bella, the Sicilian-born physiologist creator of the controversial cancer therapy - traces the historical reasons and political responsibilities that produced the current reality: not only those of state, but also those of the unions. Who field often on the skin of their precarious, as reported and documented a disturbing chapter in the book.
