Working time for changing into workwear

The agreement was signed by Birra Peroni and Fai Cisl, Flai Cgil and Uila Uil. The unions announced that the agreement forms part of a process of industrial relations characterised by significant regulatory achievements. These include recognition of time for changing into workwear (the time needed to put on or take off workwear before and after the work shift), the relaunch of the national restricted committee and bilateral technical committees on safety, training/professional skills and competencies. Measures to provide housing support and local welfare are also important.
The agreement at Birra Peroni follows shortly after those at other major food companies, such as Barilla, Balocco, Sanpellegrino, Lavazza and Illycaffè.
