On March 16th, “standard” agreements for cooperatives (between trade unions and Lega Coop, Confcooperative and Agci) and for small industry of so called Confapi were signed. Social parties agree on the positive judgment on the way to stimulate the productivity and apply 10% rate on overtimes, overnight work, “flexible” clauses in the part-time, work shifts when referred to needs of company competitiveness.
