What Is Good For Premenopause

hunger strike to denounce the precarious solidarity of Coordinations precarious Paola Caruso, precarious links of Corriere della Sera

 

A TUTTI I COLLEGHI
con preghiera di diffusione

 

Paola Caruso Paola Caruso , giornalista professionista precaria quarantenne, da sette anni collaboratrice milanese del Corriere della Sera , è da sabato 13 novembre in sciopero della fame per protestare contro la condizione di "Precarious life" (as she is called) in his paper.

The coordinators of temporary and freelance journalists of Emilia Romagna, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Veneto and Campania express their solidarity with the human and professional colleague Paola Caruso, who has taken an extreme form of protest and dramatic to denounce the unsustainability of continued insecurity, which weighs not only on his life, but also that of many other colleagues throughout Italy. It should be noted that, according to official figures dell'INPGI, half of Italian freelance journalist, most severely underpaid, earning on average only 7 000 € a year.

The facts: after 7 years of contributions, and from 2007 co.co.co. Annual with Corser, Paola Caruso, after the many awards received have been waiting for a better deal, if not an assumption, at least one art. 2, that is a regular contributor. But when a position became vacant in writing was entered into a contract with a new partner, just come from a journalism school, and without providing any professional advancement to the precarious for some time active with the editors.

fade Seeing in this way all the hopes and expectations of some stabilization, overtaken by a colleague early in his career (and with the further humiliation that they would play work desk in the newsroom, "through" the news and articles written by herself and other precarious long-term), Paola Caruso Saturday, November 13 launched a hunger strike (and initially also thirst, fortunately, suspended after two days) , to denounce a state of affairs professionally heavy humanly demeaning, and seemingly no prospects.

Without going further in the technical aspects of the story (with which the editor of Corriere della Sera, Ferruccio De Bortoli, offers slightly different interpretation, arguing that "his protest has no foundation," also asked "Mrs Caruso to stop the hunger strike and to find serenity and measurement), as coordinator of journalists precarious of Emilia Romagna, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Veneto and Campania, demand that the story of Paul Caruso, however, as she hopes, will become a national battle , the symbol of the plight of working and living in precarious and faced a lot of freelance journalists from all over Italy.

In fact, despite the important and often decisive contributions to the freelance and casual information leading to the Italian circuit, they are forced to live in constant uncertainty for work, almost always shamefully underpaid, and the fear to protest and assert also their rights, per il rischio di perdere le proprie collaborazioni, e di non avere più di che campare.

E’ questa una condizione umanamente e professionalmente inaccettabile, sulla quale chiediamo nette prese di posizione ed iniziative coerenti da parte di tutta la categoria, vedendo uniti con convinzione in questa battaglia di civiltà e rispetto dei diritti tutti i giornalisti, contrattualizzati e non.

In queste ore della vicenda della collega si sta interessando sia il Comitato di redazione del Corriere, che l’Associazione Stampa Lombarda che la stessa FNSI, anche tramite la Commissione nazionale per il lavoro autonomo, e non abbiamo motivi di dubitare che tutto ciò dovrà portare a una verifica e a un chiarimento of this dramatic event, which will be followed, however, a decisive battle on the front of all the journalistic insecurity and self-employment.

colleague Paola Caruso, of which we fully understand the state of humiliation and exasperation, we express our full solidarity and commitment to the mobilization convinced about his battle, which is also ours. And please do not proceed further in a form of protest, which runs the risk of bringing serious consequences on the physical and personal.
