Rai, agreement between the company and trade unions on the renewal of the labour contract

Agreement reached on the renewal of the Collective Bargaining Agreement for executives, white and blue collar workers of the Rai Group companies. The agreement hypothesis signed for the four-year period 2023-2026 by Rai and the trade unions representing non-journalistic personnel (Cgil, Cisl, Uil, Ugl, Snater, Libersind) concerns about 9,600 employees.

"It was defined after very intense negotiations, with the shared objective of providing a rapid response to the expectations of workers. In fact, the renewal was reached a year and a half after the expiry of the previous one, which had instead taken about four years to define," reads a note from the RAI group, which adds: "In particular, the parties wanted to give a sign of strong attention to the economic aspects, in light of the inflation recorded in the period of reference, providing significant values on the increase of the minimums.

The agreement with the trade unions is described as 'a very important result' by President Marinella Soldi, CEO Roberto Sergio and General Manager Giampaolo Rossi, according to whom it is 'an unavoidable starting point for a company that is preparing to become a true digital media company and, above all, the right recognition for those whose daily work makes the Public Service the largest cultural company in the country'.
