The former Ilva factories in Genoa, Novi Ligure and Taranto are part of the former Ilva steelworks complex, the subject of a long sale and restructuring process which has suffered repeated delays, generating concern among workers, local administrations and unions regarding the employment and industrial future of the territories.
By mid-November the former Ilva factories in Genoa and Novi will stop their activity. The news arrived via a joint note from the mayors of Genoa and Novi. And in the evening from the meeting at Palazzo Chigi it emerged that the stop at the Taranto plants comes into effect as early as tomorrow, 9 October. The systems will be kept in heating mode, "hot stand-by", pending the decision of the Court of Cassation, expected on 20 October. But "in the absence" of a favorable provision, heating maintenance will also be "suspended" on October 24th, with the hot area definitively shutting down by October 25th, "without any possibility" of a subsequent restart.
The first reaction had already arrived in the afternoon from a harsh note from the mayors of Genoa Silvia Salis and Novi Rocchino Mulliere. «While I understand the long and complex phase of difficulty that the company is going through - the comment -, the announcement of a lockout is completely unacceptable. The harmful consequences of the continuous delays that are characterizing the sales process cannot once again fall on workers, their families and the territories in which they live and work".
The news spread while the Genoese trade unionists were still on the train to reach the meeting called at 6.30 pm at the ministry. It seems that the letter was sent not only to the mayors, but also to the regional presidents, the prefectures and the police forces of the two territories involved.
In the evening the meeting at Palazzo Chigi began under the banner of tension. After an hour and a half he was suspended for a technical investigation. "We are checking whether there are margins for not reaching a complete shutdown so that there is no complete damage to the plants." According to what we understand, the undersecretary to the presidency of the council, Alfredo Mantovano, said this.
