The economic growth and human development must go hand in hand.
(Kailash Satyarthi)
In a country, as ours, gripped the low productivity of companies in the global market, the element that can make it grow is training.
In terms of companies needs to be done more. The data tell us that investments in education are growing but are still below of European average, especially for small and medium enterprises (the European average of the companies that make training is of 72,6%, while in Italy we are to 60,2%).
For this it is essential to the role played by funds interprofessional which provide the so-called training funded. Instituted by the law 338/2000 and operationally born in 2003, are associative organizations Bilateral whose members voluntarily businesses and their intended resources resulting from the specific contribution (the 0,30%) INPS paid.
They They represent a great opportunity for the world of work that still does not today It is fully exploited. For example, statistics show poor use of interprofessional funds for the formation of innovation and internationalization.
But even from the side of politics. In fact, unfortunately, funds are always subject to political choices they made, and apparently still they want to do, hijack these important resources for the continuous training of workers, on other expenditure items or even determine the abolishment of the fund itself.
In 2009 the Berlusconi government He turned to funds urging intervention for redundancy fund and mobility.
In 2012 Reform Fornero has predicted that the agreements and contracts founding of the Solidarity Funds (prescribed by the law 92/2012) can establish that they also converge with the possible inter-fund established by the same Parties.
In 2013 the Government Letta He went to withdraw 246 million from the proceeds 0,30% then cashed by INPS and not yet paid to the inter-professional funds to finance the layoff in Derogation.
Today some senators of the Movement 5 Stars, including some members of the Commission Work (to which for now only been assigned), They presented a bill aimed at increasing the size of the pension cumulative contribution of employees through the possibility of crediting the personal retirement account 0,30% Training intended to interprofessional training funds continues.
Remove resources to training is a boomerang. There is need for education for all, for young and old, in order to renew their skills in order to stay abreast of new production methods and support the needs of innovation of the entire production cycle.
If you like we have said is a lever for growth of the country, depotenziarla only means, expand even more assistance basin.
