The amended decree obtained the second vote of confidence by the Senate. Now it has to obtain the definitive approval by the “Camera dei deputati”. These amendments include the following: fixed-term contracts do not need to be justified; possible extensions to the fixed-term are increased from one to five; employers can now employ a maximum number of fixed term employees equal to 20% of its indefinite workforce, breaching which a fine is payable; as regard apprenticeship the “confirmation” quota of “Fornero Law” is reduced.
