A complicated story that of strike on December 15th, with news that follows one another within a few minutes, sometimes even conflicting ones.
The question of precept
At first it was decided a 24-hour strike on December 15th, the strike was actually supposed to take place in November, but had been ordered by Minister Salvini, which in fact forced the strike to be reduced to 4 hours of service.
The unions, seeing their right to strike violated, therefore decided to postpone it until December so they could still strike for 24 hours.
Wednesday 13 December, however, a new precept has arrived by Minister Salvini, which would again force a 4-hour strike.
The reaction of the unions
Obviously, as expected, the reaction of the unions was not positive, who strongly rejected the precept, but left each company to decide whether to adhere to the original timetable or not.
Many transport companies, as in Milan and Rome, have decided to join the strike only in a reduced form. In Naples EAV has decided not to join, and ANM rejected the injunction joining the 24-hour strike.
1-hour strike on Metro Line 24, Buses, Trams, Trolleybuses and Funiculars
During the morning of December 14th, ANM issued a public statement joined the strike in its original form: 24 hours stop, obviously in compliance with the guarantee bands.
Which led to an update of all previous information, who warned of the injunction, but with the "suspicion" in the air that things would not go as Salvini thought.
ANM strike times
The ANM strike will then take place from 3:00 am on December 15th to 3:00 am on December 16th.
