How will Uilca handle political and negotiation relations?

General Secretary Fulvio Furlan announced specific national mandates for political and negotiating roles. Giovanni Gianninoto will represent Uilca in relations with Federcasse and the Iccrea Group. Luca Faietti will handle relations with CCB.

These appointments aim to streamline how the union interacts with top-level financial entities. The congress also formally recognized Giuseppe Del Vecchio for his union work benefiting Uilca and workers in the cooperative credit sector.

Expert Insight: Samantha Carter notes that by assigning dedicated representatives to Federcasse and CCB, Uilca is likely attempting to create a more specialized negotiation front. This structure could allow the union to address the distinct operational needs of different cooperative credit entities more effectively.

What is the focus for the next mandate?

The congress established activity lines for the upcoming term. According to the assembly, the primary focus remains the protection of workers within the sector.

Future activities may involve intensified negotiations through the newly appointed representatives. The union could use these established secretariats to implement the worker protection strategies defined during the Rome meetings.
