First I would like to thank the CGIL in the person of Livorno Brunello for the wide summary data on the situation of textile and textile machinery Biellese, it appears, after the view had it, that the future will not be for the Biella textile, since this industry not only will not be able to create new jobs, but ended in crisis, will see a further shrinking of the companies. This area already sorely tried by the crisis "Textiles" (for events due to emerging markets, China, India etc..), And now subject to ongoing economic crisis, has another problem, all Biellese, which resides in the same companies, as the Most of them are run by "households owning" that, at times, can be considered a limit to the dynamics with which should be managed on modern business.
also had processes in other sectors, with the merger of several manufacturing units into one larger, more competitive and prepared for the challenges of the market, occurred in the textile industry only in sporadic cases.
Compounding the situation we thought that our government and in particular the Minister Gelmini, with the cutting of funds needed for the proper functioning of the 'University of textiles "(unique) and necessary to revive the world-class production of Biella. The population can not
Biellese then hope in a revival of the textile industry even at the end of the economic crisis.
Continuing with the reform and cuts imposed by the Minister Gelmini Tremonti on the school (40,000 job losses per year x 3 years), the invisibility of the momentary loss of permanent jobs, (the places were in fact cut the precarious), will feel as we will be retiring and there will be recruitment, and temporary workers will see more and more away their hope for a permanent job, as well explained by Prof. Graziano Euro.
Also in this area then, new jobs do not see the horizon, but as explained above, there will be reductions in the unit. Here the economic crisis not involved, policy choices are wrong in our view, in particular their investment knowledge.
chink of light, according to the interventions, (Dr. Chiappo) opens perhaps health Biellese, hoping that there are also on the health sector cuts imposed by the Government or by the regions.
more optimistic, albeit only slightly, could be the development of tourism projects with
promoted by the Mountain Communities (during that period are not eliminated) by making it attractive to our valleys, and consequently could lead to tourism development in the activities dependent.
A nod is also given to agriculture Biellese, on the production of traditional products, which But they can not give prospects for new jobs.
All agree that the future will be concrete alternative energy, for which our forests could play an important role (now in the grip of anarchy more complete).
Finally, the prospect of the residential area of \u200b\u200bconvenience for workers in large cities such as Turin and Milan (given the travel times of the tangential to get the job, the rents prohibitive and the quality of life), could find support in the Biella if supported by efficient and fast means of communication.
The questions we ask ourselves and the parties that have representation in these institutions are:
-offs at the end of those There will be unemployed in the Biella?
-How many businesses will close?
-What will the unemployed?
-What work could make Biellesi than those of their tradition?
-Are there any plans (even away from our traditions) funded by the European Community, the Government, the Region can be implemented in our Biellese?
-You can find great convenience in order to attract production companies (and therefore jobs) in our area?
As a simple organization, we address this open letter to the parties, inviting them to discover in the folds of law, finance, relations with institutions, in personal contact with real entrepreneurs, the rapid and sustainable solutions for our people and our territory.
await answers.
