The impact of artificial intelligence in the transport sector, the issues of innovation, sustainability, investments in public transport and strategic infrastructures, but also of safety at work and on the protection of traveling staff, increasingly subject to violent aggressions, have been at the center of the discussion of the Congress Assembly of the Fit-Cisl of Catanzaro.
The Assembly was opened by the report by Domenico Poscaconfirmed secretary of the Fit-Cisl garrison of Catanzaro: “True sustainability is to be able to put people in a position to move from private car to the public service. Making empty trains or buses travel, although eco -sustainable, is a negative factor. We need a real interconnection between the carriers to encourage the use of public transport, “said Posca. “Our proposal – he added – is to transform Lamezia Terme airport into a strategic interconnection center, in which the railway line – the regional one, perhaps even in the future even high speed – could pass under the airport airport, allowing passengers to quickly pass from the train to the plane”.
The Calabria Fit-Cisl Secretary General, Vincenzo Fausto Pagnotta, He highlighted the importance of the assemblies of territorial principals in sight in the path of strengthening the Federation and in the definition of future strategies in view of the thirteenth regional congress of the Fit-Cisl Calabria, scheduled for April 10 in Pizzo: “We are experiencing a moment of great participation, with a strong involvement of young people and women, who can offer a new vision and face the challenges of the world of transport and work with determination. On the theme of transport we are engaged on several fronts, in dialogue with the Region, to fill the shortcomings of resources on high speed. It is essential to integrate transport services to encourage tourism and guarantee the mobility of internal countries with sustainable and latest generation means, improving both passenger and freight transport, “said Pagnotta, who also emphasized the topic of aggressions to public transport staff:” The theme of attacks has become a real national emergency, which also affects our region. Recently, one of our associates, Trenitalia leader, has been the victim of a serious episode of violence. We immediately asked for meetings in the prefectures to face the problem, but we consider it to be fundamental to sign in our region a protocol between institutions, employers and unions to guarantee the safety of those who work in public transport “.
Also the secretary general US-CISL Magna Graecia, Daniele Gualtierihe underlined the importance of investing in infrastructure and mobility for the development of the territory: “Today is an important day, which sees the transport category, in a great teamwork, committed to relaunching the appeal to the institutions so that we invest more in local public transport, in mobility, in strengthening port, airport, road and railway infrastructures and especially in their interconnection. Mobility is a fundamental right of citizens and a strategic lever to enhance tourism, agri -food and territorial excellence, contrasting the escape of young people and attracting investments “.
The Assembly, which also took part in the secretary USR Calabria, Sergio Colosimo, He confirmed the central role of the Fit-Cisl in the protection and support for workers in the sector.
