Deputy Premier and Transport Minister
Matteo Salvini on Wednesday said he was satisfied with the CGIL
and UL trade unions' reduction of Friday's transport sector
strike from eight hours to four and said that "good sense has
prevailed".
After he issued injunctions against the original strike, he said
"good sense, workers and citizens have won.
"The right to strike is not called into question".
CGIL trade union general secretary Maurizio Landini said
Wednesday he and UIL general secretary Pierpaolo Bombardieri had
decided to reduce a transport strike which is part of a 24-hour
general strike Friday to just four hours out of a sense of
responsibility to workers who might face penalties for arriving
at work late.
For the transport sector, Landini said, the strike on Friday is
reduced from 8 to 4 hours, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., also as a
consequence of Salvini's injunctions against the stoppage.
