The 24 hour national strike of
Ferrovie dello Stato (FS) rail group staff proclaimed by some
independent trade unions from 9pm Thursday to 9pm Friday has
been reduced to four hours, following the order issued by the
Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport, FS said Wednesday.
Abstention from work is expected from 9 am to 1 pm on Friday 13
December 2024, the rail group said.
The union protest, FS communicates, could lead to changes to the
circulation of Frecce, Intercity and Trenitalia Regional trains.
The effects, in terms of cancellations and delays, may occur
even before and last beyond the end time of the strike.
Trenitalia invites passengers to inform themselves before going
to the station about the active services through the Trenitalia
App, the Infomobility section of trenitalia.com, the social and
web channels of the FS Italiane group, the toll-free number 800
89 20 21, as well as in ticket offices and assistance offices of
railway stations, self-service outlets and affiliated travel
agencies.
Grass-roots union federation USB has said it will ignore
Tranport Minister Matteo Salvini's order to keep the strike to
four hours, saying it will last the original 24 hours.
