National Strike Announced for Gruppo Fs Employees
A 24-hour strike will affect Italian railway operations from March 18 to March 19, 2025.
Gruppo Fs has announced a national strike affecting its employees, scheduled to take place from 21:00 on March 18 to 21:00 on March 19, 2025. According to a statement from the group, the strike will impact the railway services operated by Gruppo Fs Italiane, with indications that additional operators may also be involved in the disruption.
The website of the Commissione di Garanzia, which monitors strikes and their compliance with regulations, states that the strike will affect companies engaged in railway activities.
However, it specifies that the Business and Intermodal Development Division of the Piedmont and Aosta Valley Regional Management is excluded from the strike action.
The strike has been called by the USB Lavoro Privato union, which has been notably active in the recent labor landscape.
This union previously canceled a planned strike that was set for February 22 and 23. During that time, the USB Lavoro Privato engaged in a dispute with the Commissione di Garanzia regarding new regulations that restrict the right to strike, particularly the introduction of guaranteed service windows on public holidays and an increase in guaranteed trains for medium and long-distance travel.
This rescheduled strike emerges amid ongoing discussions about labor rights and conditions within the Italian railway sector, reflecting a broader context of labor movements striving to address worker grievances.
