MIPAAF, Bellanova: "confirms the correctness of the law against the hired workers and the urgency of regularization and emergence"
“A highly significant operation that confirms - if ever there was a need - the rightness of the law against the hired manor approved in 2016 and the urgency of the regulation on the regularization and emergence of Italian and foreign work approved with the Relaunch Decree. The picture illustrated this morning is eloquent: over a year of investigative activity, 60 precautionary measures issued against as many subjects, 14 seized companies and so 20 vehicles used for the transport of agricultural laborers, over 200 agricultural laborers renamed by the corporal "monkeys", quench your thirst with the water from the drains. Exploited on the fields with grueling work shifts, injured in their dignity, suffering physical violence, without safety devices, for 80 cents per box of citrus fruits, in the face of illicit earnings of the suspects whom the police themselves have defined relevant.
Not to mention the fake marriages for illegally obtaining residence permits, with all due respect to those who pretend not to know and not to see ", so Minister Teresa Bellanova comments on the anti-vaporized operation" Demeter "conducted at dawn this morning by the Guard of Finance, epicenter of the Piana di Sibari, expressing "praise" for law enforcement and judiciary.
"Colonel Nastasi, provincial commander of the Gdf of Cosenza", continues Bellanova, "has described degrading and dilapidated contexts, speaking of people considered as objects of property. In the face of all this, the rule on emergence and regularization desired by the Government is confirmed as mandatory. Above all, the need for correct and punctual information addressed to these workers and on which everyone must feel committed emerges with ever greater evidence: the entire institutional chain, lay and Catholic voluntary associations active in the neighborhood welfare, all those who feel morally and politically involved in this change of pace for dignity, social justice, regular work and virtuous competition between companies. Only by emptying the audience of undeclared and clandestine work is water taken away from the corporals and from unfair competition between companies that poisons and pollutes supply chain relationships. The corporal, as it is shown again today, is mafia, it is crime. We all work to defeat him definitively ".
