After hitting pensioners in the first three months of 2023, the most useless levy in the world now affects all active journalists. 1 percent on salaries, decided by the Inpgi Board of Directors a few months before dying, to try not to die. The serious thing is that after the Draghi government's decision to transfer the Inpgi social security responsibilities to the Inps, that levy was kept alive and now journalists will see their salaries reduced to finance the Inps, heir to the Inpgi. At Corriere della Sera the editorial committee sent a poisonous statement to colleagues: "The company has informed us that in the months of November and December the withdrawals will be made from our salaries in compliance with the INPS circular which we attach. As you will see, this text of October 13th contains the instructions to deduct 1% from the gross salary for 6 months from all journalists in service activities, even if this withdrawal will in fact be concentrated in the two months remaining until the end of the year. year, since the procedure must necessarily be concluded by 2023.
Therefore, to try to reduce at least a minimum the economic DY Leads impact on our pockets, we have agreed with the company to increase the thirteenth month's salary and therefore to proceed in this way: an amount equivalent to 2 withdrawals in the November pay slip and the remaining sum, equal to 4 withdrawals, in December. We would like to underline that this measure of withholding, as had already happened for retired journalists in January, February and March 2023, derives from a resolution of the Inpgi Board of Directors approved in June 2021 by the majority, including Fnsi and Fieg, and validated by the supervising ministries". DESPERATE ATTEMPT A decision - continues the press release from the Cdr of the Corriere - "strongly contested by the opposition in the Inpgi Board of Directors and the subject of strong controversy in our category. These measures (originally envisaged by the resolution for 5 years but concretely 'reduced' to 6 months due to the transfer to INPS) were aimed at a desperate (and harmful) attempt to save INPGI, which as we well know did not come to fruition.
and Inpgi 1 merged by law into Inps 16 months ago”. Conclusion: “Their uselessness is evident to everyone today.” In June 2021 this solidarity levy was decided by the Inpgi Board of Directors for five years, for active professionals and pensioners: at that time the Institute was fighting for its survival and had offered the government the proposal for a maneuver overall. The entry into force of the provision on the one percent levy was set for 1 January 2022. Except that, to save the coffers and pension payments, the government decided at the end of 2021 that from 1 July 2022 the INPS would absorb Inpgi one, the part that took care of the compulsory general assistance for employed journalists. BUDGETS TO BE REMEDIED Was there still a need for that levy, given the entry of INPS into the scene? The Fnsi asked the competent ministers to remove the solidarity contribution, but in the end the issue was cut cleanly by the State Attorney's Office, which noted the validity of the levy in favor of the pre-absorption INPGI only, and therefore only for the period between 1 January 2022 to July 2022, i.e. for the remaining period of life of the Italian journalists' social security institute.
