On Huffington Post, Francesco D’Amora and Federica Giannetti analyze the impact that a Yes vote could have on three central aspects of labor law.
The first question concerns the Jobs Act (Legislative Decree 23/2015). Its repeal would reintroduce previous mechanisms, such as the obligation to communicate to the Inspectorate for economic dismissals and the mandatory conciliation procedure. The facilitated economic offer to avoid litigation would also be eliminated.
The second question eliminates the maximum ceiling of 6 months of compensation for micro-enterprises with fewer than 15 employees. Judges could freely decide the amount, with possible penalizing effects for companies with less financial capacity.
Finally, the third question aims to reintroduce the obligation to state the reasons for the decision in fixed-term contracts, even for those lasting less than 12 months. A measure that would reduce management flexibility for companies.
Overall, the referendum reform would bring the system back to a less recent setting, with significant implications in terms of personnel management and litigation.
