Italy changes its skin. Alternate governments, set the second republic and in Italy you can feel the desire to turn the page. Our economy is now in production activity and multi-purpose businesses have long exceeded its borders, working in an international dimension. In particular, the change has affected the way we produce organization of work and, as seems to be over the period of membership of the old ideological and partisan teams, the rules governing the work remains, however, casts a vision still too conditioned by the duopoly "employee - person", which was the cultural condition of the Workers' Statute (Law 300/1970). This traditional dichotomous key, which is manifested especially in the area of \u200b\u200bprotection, in addition to collide with the new economic arrangements, it also allows you to manage efficiently the particular contractual arrangements which are not covered in the spheres of autonomy and subordination (if not by a process adaptation law). He then reveals the need to carry out work of revival of labor law, or in any way, to revise the law to make rules 300 closer to the events of today's economic and social reality. For nearly a decade, the reform debate has emphasized the desirability of achieving a state of the new work, an idea proposed by Tiziano Treu and Biagi in 1998 and shot the professor in Bologna in the White Paper. "This is - Marco Biagi wrote in an article published March 10, 2002 Il Sole 24 Ore (" A White Paper on review ") - to undertake a total revision of the report and the labor market, realizing in the end a single text that represents a tool for operators of light and agile human resource management. The 'state of play "should finally give Italy new techniques to adjust all sorts of work, even the most atypical, reviewing old rules no longer in tune with the modern organization of work and providing new capabilities to govern the trades emerging in knowledge-based society. " The idea behind the new statute, is, in fact, to include within the scope of labor law in which all activities can be inferred performance of work, focusing on the scale of protection from the perspective of the concentric circles : ie starting from a minimal core of mandatory warranties and intangible, which applies to all employment relationships regardless of legal status, and then gradually narrow the scope of protection, until you get to the most robust of employment. The minimum set should include rights derived from constitutional and fundamental rights such as protection of health and safety in the workplace, rights relating to freedom of association, prohibition of discrimination, the right to fair compensation, the right to maternity and confidentiality. In addition to protections in employment, should be provided for other protections, such as access to employment services, the right to continuing training and a solid system of income support, in other words, we should also prepare a series of guarantees in the labor market, as it calls for Europe. This is in practice a new type of security, the so-called flexicurity of Danish origin, however, resumed in the Green Paper the European Union, which has as its center the phrase "social safety nets - active employment policies." Alongside this core unavailable, there is also an area of \u200b\u200bprotection provided in terms of its inevitability, and thus available in terms of collective and individual. The question is addressed "on the side of protection" rather than be out with the only tool for the classification of the employment relationship, in harmony with the needs of dynamic negotiation of a reality in continuous evolution. On the other hand, to implement a modern state of work, you must take measures to complement the work: first of all the certification procedures of labor relations in the administrative (introduced by the Biagi law but so far not fully taken off) the remodeling of the protection of employment and, finally, the establishment of a common core of social security benefits for both salaried and freelance, to resize the matter of classificatory schemes is also negotiating with regard to social security. The reform plan designed by Marco Biagi is still incomplete. So far, the reform of social safety nets and the Statute of the new jobs have remained in the limbo of good intentions. It takes consensus. It takes courage.
