Renzi, unions tussle over Jobs Act

Premier Matteo Renzi on Thursday blasted the decision by two of Italy‘s big three union confederations, the CGIL and UIL, to call a general strike on December 12 against the government‘s Jobs Act labour reform and its 2015 budget bill, which labor argues does not allocate enough money for welfare and unemployment in continued hard times.
