Women Strangling Women Viedos

Some documents on Fiat's Pomigliano

2008-2010


We are not slaves!

We are not slaves! said a worker Pomigliano, but that is precisely the sense of Plan Marchionne ": transform employees into servants. The terms imposed by the FIAT are deadly: transition from 15 to 18 rounds, Saturday work required (and then we will work on 6 days instead of 5, night shift required); increase in annual mandatory overtime (40 to 120!); Shift lunch break at the end of turn, reduction of the pause on mechanized lines from 40 to 30 minutes of stops recovery techniques, introduction of the Ergo-Uas which aims to cut downtime and increase the "saturation" of the workforce, increased production rates for each worker by 30%, cutting 500 workers (through mobility) in addition to the casual who have not renewed the contract on hold permits, non-payment of 'Integration of sick absences INPS considered "abnormal" ban on strikes in cases of "special" and penalties for persons who violate the points of the agreement, up to and including termination . E 'infamous agreement, which requires the return to working conditions "nineteenth century" and typical of the black economy, where the owner can do whatever he wants, a "Plan" that will be the forerunner to all employers.

[...]

The FIOM Marchionne has said no to the plan. But it is a "no" apparently net, as is willing to accept the general thrust of the plan and 18 rounds. Why accept - in any case - a worsening of the workers? Why not also think about the precarious condition of the laid off, workers and industries of the future of Polish workers? Why not at least call a general strike in the engineering sector for 22 [June 2010], the day of the referendum, conveying a national demonstration at the gates of FIAT. Was, if nothing else, a strong signal, not to be left alone Pomigliano el'indotto. We know however, that the FIOM will never do anything like that, because the FIOM accepts the compatibility "of the country", that is the main profit. But are those compatibility issues that workers must climb over, and for this, a fight will not be true by the unions. The real struggle may emerge only if the workers directly, find the strength to put together, going beyond the union. From the beginning, Fiat said: take it or leave it, accept the plan or the plant closes. There margin to mediate! There is therefore scope for a trade union body for mediation. The real fight can not be transferred or represented by any union. Our defense goes through the struggle, the real one, and then passes through direct protagonists of us workers.

The workers were Pomigliano example when, in 2008 , fought against the outsourcing of some workers at the Department of Nola confinement [see below]. The strength of that struggle were just putting on the part of union flags, the creation of a committee of struggle and an indefinite general strike by assembly workers managed outside the factory. It should be quella esperienza che bisogna ripartire.





Invitiamo innanzitutto gli operai più combattivi di Pomigliano e Nola ad abbandonare le residue speranze nel sindacato, a dare vita ad un organismo di lotta proprio dei lavoratori, che svolga un lavoro di organizzazione e agitazione tra tutti gli altri lavoratori. Un punto di partenza, che punti ad una lotta estesa anche all’indotto e gestita dalle assemblee operaie. Noi, come in passato, lotteremo assieme a voi.

April 2008: a workers' struggle censored


The origins of the "plan Marchionne"

In mid-April [2008], in full electoral climate, 316 workers of Fiat's Pomigliano d'Arco ( Naples) are, in fact, outsourced and moved to the new plant in Nola.

But the 316, along with other workers of the factory and there are 2 days block for goods entering and leaving !

The main reaction and 'immediate and fierce.

Repeated levels of the police to remove locks workers, and helicopters to bring out the goods trapped blocks.

unions, and those sold by the scheme (Fiom, Fim, Uilm, Fismic) to basic (Slai Cobas, Fmlu, Cub) are compact in the impetus and the anger of the workers seeking to block the bitter end, who reject the deal and there are to swallow yet another piece of crap packaged with candy! [See below]

Outsourcing and transfers are the antechamber of layoffs.

A Pomigliano everybody knows, but the unions pretending to seek an impossible understanding - that the company refuses fiat to the sound of beatings - and start fighting among themselves and index no more strikes!

Only a group of workers continues to fight until the transfers are not definitive.

In shameful silence of the TV and newspapers, busy doing the sirens of winners and losers of the election campaign, the workers of Pomigliano (initially and then all just a bunch more determined and conscious) fought alone against the giant Fiat, which has been able to use the state police for his own interests private.

The battle was lost but the pangs of crisis are felt the first signs of class war.

Again, as tramvieri at the end of 2003, as the workers of Fiat Melfi in 2004, such as call center operators to Atesia until 2007, workers have found the strength to fight openly against the masters, without the unions, which are now only a stop to the cumbersome workers' struggles!

They fought but lost, because almost nobody has been able to field workers in real time of their struggle, no union has raised the question a livello nazionale, non c’è stata, ancora una volta, la sperata solidarietà di classe. [...]

Aprile 2008: battuta d'arresto alle mobilitazioni di Pomigliano

 


Ieri (23 aprile) assemblea al primo e secondo turno, la presenza complessiva è stata inferiore alle 1000 unità. I sindacati non hanno affisso in fabbrica nemmeno i comunicati, al fine boicottare questa assemblea .


 


All'assemblea hanno fatto di tutto per dividere ulteriormente gli operai continuando a 1) sostenere che gli operai hanno paurta di lottare, gli unici a lottare sarebbero i delegati e i sindacalisti etc.; 2) non proponendo nessuna iniziativa pratica di mobilitazione (sempre con la scusa che gli operai non vogliono perdere salario etc.); 3) tutti i sindacati di base e non sono allineati con questa posizione : lo Slai cobas boicotta le iniziative di lotta portando avanti la vertenza legale e basta; Rdb, Flmu, Cub continuano a prendere tempo. Tutti questi sindacati, da quando è iniziata la lotta NON HANNO PROCLAMATO NEMMENO UN'ORA DI SCIOPERO . Questo è il dato reale e concreto. l'unico. Hanno fatto solo una cosa, fin dall'inizio: SEMINARE DIVISIONI, PAURA E DEMORALIZZAZIONE .
Their biggest concern was: a) eliminate the Committee spontaneous labor unions putting the flags (and therefore advocates the division of parishes within the body worker) and is not a case, that the working force has been broken on the very day on which the shitty union flags have reappeared, breaking the unity of workers and allowing the cops to do their dirty work, b) to remove the stakes as soon as possible and take time . The only presence of the worker class is using the cobas as a cover / tool, while not in his line of auditors.
These are the only ones who have continued to proclaim strike on strike, ensuring coverage to those who join trade unions. The fragmentation of conduct by the union, but he made his game. The gates there was enough strength to kick off the new round of battles. While this morning at 4.30, two trucks each with 20 cops were ready at the gates to intimidate workers and intervene in case of blocks. Despite a war and learn in isolation, these workers are more militant, in fact, overcoming the logic of delegation of the parish and union. A new generation of militant workers is growing. To them our solidarity, support, esteem.
divisions and tactics against union for a new labor movement.
As you already said that once (May 5!) That these workers will be in Nola start another 400 points for a new outsourcing, unions do not find something better to do than to call a new meeting for establish a new path of struggle. Monday ... all believe that this new assembly will also jump, passing time without struggles hold until the fateful May 5.
Our position is clear and unambiguous: assemblies must be owned e gestite dai lavoratori in quanto tali, non da sindacati e sindacalisti. Bisogna recuperare lo spirito del comitato operaio – senza bandiere sindacali – che ha dato vita al grande sciopero (100%) del 10 e 11 aprile ed al successivo blocco delle merci; bisogna formare su saldi principi classisti ed internazionalisti questa nuova generazione di militanti operai.
