Il passo indietro di mr. Ryanair - Corriere Bergamo
Michael O'Leary
From 1 January 2013 Ryanair is registered at the Chamber of Commerce of Milan. This is the final step in a process of regularization of the low cost airline world's most powerful (who now pay tuition and fees in Italy), sealed by the statements of Wednesday's patron Michael O 'Leary: "If Italy changes the law, we respect. In any base we operate, we respect the rules and do it in Italy. For this also solve the disputes. " It is worth remembering that the disputes referred to Mister Ryanair originated in the question rather well founded, that in the past the giant of the skies has considered its employees from time to time Irish or Italian depending on your convenience. Rather than comply with the law, according to legal fronts open, Ryanair would be adequate for years two rules (perhaps not coincidentally O'Leary used the plural) to Dublin, when it came to pay less taxes and contributions, and that of Rome, when he is tacitly allowed its employees usufruissero of our health care, though not right.
The shyster turns from the Irish, inexplicably ignored for years, have brought this time some problems. For the non-payment of contributions in Italy, the prosecutor Maria Letizia Mocciaro, thanks to the material collected by the Provincial Labour Directorate and inspectors INPS Bergamo, has investigated O'Leary and the Director of Legal Affairs of the Irish company, Juliusz Komorek. The same is summoned to appear Feb. 20 in front of an employment tribunal Giuseppina Finazzi, which will determine which social security legislation was applied for prior learning, employees Ryanair. While waiting for the verdict, it is certain that the Irish have saved tens of millions of euro is not paid to the coffers of our security. And thanks to this (alleged) failure have been able to charge rates lower than their competitors. Not anymore: the decree growth 2.0 The government has considered Ryanair the same way as all the other Italian companies in accordance with the principle that taxes and contributions are paid in the state where it generates profit.
In light of the unconditional surrender of O'Leary ("Leaving Italy after the new law? Forget it"), it is surprising that most of our MPs have lobbied to soften the blow to the Irish company. As if to say, basically, that the law is not that the same for everyone. Them, men of the State, had been alerted by Sacbo, the management company of the airport of Orio, concerned that Ryanair, after the crackdown, could leave Italy. A fear that gave rise to the nerve of management may be too focused on the marriage of convenience with the low cost airline. Union ten years has brought benefits to both grown exponentially. One record after another, in the euphoria of numbers that may have obfuscated the details. How come no one has reported the INPS and the ministry of labor to pay the fault of Ryanair? Anyone working with a public body is obliged to submit the Durch (SPD regular contributions). A glance at the to realize that something was wrong.
