cost:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 120px;\"><strong>\u2022<\/strong>\u00a0 The Italian Covid Redundancy Fund is confirmed for 13 weeks, to be requested between April 1<sup>st<\/sup> and June 30<sup>th<\/sup>, 2021;<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 120px;\"><strong>\u2022\u00a0 <\/strong>The Redundacy Fund by way of derogation and the Wage Subsidies Fund (\u201cFIS\u201d) are confirmed for 28 weeks, from April 1<sup>st<\/sup> to December 31<sup>st<\/sup>, 2021.<\/p>\n<p>The difference between the various wage subsidies reveals the expectation by the Italian Government that the Industry sector (which benefits from the Covid Redundancy Fund) will fully restart from July and that the Trade and Services sector (which normally benefits from the Redundacy Fund by way of derogation and the FIS) will suffer throughout 2021.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2) What you cannot do:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is confirmed that until 30.06.2021 it will not be possible neither to dismiss for objective justified reasons nor to commence or reactivate collective dismissals.<br \/>\nThis prohibition is extended until October 31<sup>st<\/sup>, 2021 for employers who benefit from FIS or Redundancy Fund by way of derogation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3) What you can do:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The prohibition of dismissal does not apply to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>workers employed by a contractor, if hired again as a result of a new contractor\u2019s takeover;<\/li>\n<li>workers employed by a company that has definitively ceased operations or has been liquidated (if there is no provision for any continuation of activity);<\/li>\n<li>domestic workers, for whom the principle of free withdrawal applies;<\/li>\n<li>disciplinary dismissals, i.e. just cause dismissals or subjective justified reason dismissals;<\/li>\n<li>workers who exceed the time of respite (art. 2110 of the Italian Civil Code);<\/li>\n<li>apprentices at the end of the apprenticeship pursuant to art. 2118 of the Italian Civil Code;<\/li>\n<li>workers who reach the retirement age;<\/li>\n<li>professional sportsmen;<\/li>\n<li>short-term workers (who can be dismissed only for just cause);<\/li>\n<li>executives;<\/li>\n<li>workers on probation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It is also possible to enter into collective agreements which provide for an incentive to leave, granting the mandatory Unemployment Benefit (\u201cNASPI\u201d).<\/p>\n<p><strong>4) What you can do from July 1<sup>st<\/sup>, 2021:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The prohibition of dismissals will no more apply to employers benefiting from the Covid Redundancy Fund.<br \/>\nIndustrial companies will no longer benefit from the Covid Redundancy Fund, but they will be able to start restructuring operations or to dismiss redundant workers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5) What you can do from November 1<sup>st<\/sup>, 2021:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Companies in the Trade and Services sector will have the possibility to dismiss redundant staff either through individual dismissals or through collective procedures.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6) What you have to do <\/strong><strong><u>now<\/u>:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Analyze, understand, plan the actions that will allow companies to continue staying on the market.<br \/>\nIt is not just about waiting for the start of the dismissals, but it is about getting ready for the post-Covid world, which is already here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"display: block !important; margin:0 !important; padding: 0 !important\"
