Gestern Abend erreichte uns die Information, dass die italienische ALU-Fabrik in Battipaglia wieder besetzt wird und dass die drei Kollegen, die sich hineinbarrikadiert haben, drohen, sich selbst in die Luft zu jagen.

Wir dokumentieren hier eine Meldung aus dem europäischen Betriebsrat von Alcatel-Lucent und das Flugblatt der KollegInnen in Battipaglia. Eine Übersetzung des Flugblatts und mehr Information erfolgt in Kürze.

Dear all, I want inform you that yesterday 3 workers of ALU Battipaglia plant closed inside the factory with fire and gas. The other workers and employees of the plant are outside the factory.

The workers of Battipaglia plant decide the repetition of this extreme and dangerous conflict form from September of the last year, because ALU management don’t change the irresponsible industrial choises and Italian government don’t do nothing of reality.

The buyer that ALU choice is not a really industry, with its business, its market and so on. In additional we discovered a its sub contractor without safety, quality and sanitary regulations (and probably illicit position of some workers).

The proposal of Italian Government consist to include a new shareholder at the ALU project. This new shareholder is a very little company with a patent on electro-medical sector. But what is the development of this sector in Italy??? We don’t know!!

The situation is very dangerous and is the moment that ALU Italy and ALU top management take your responsibility. ALU asked at all employees to sign the Code of Conduct, but in these days ALU Italy and ALU top management to be quiet!!!!!!

The Italian trade unions want restart the discussion on the basis of a really industrial and employment project with credibility solution that for the employees safeguard
