Friday 23 September 2024 Lawyer Andrea Musti at Webinar “Fair compensation and the principle of free competition”

La legge sull’equo compenso 49/2023 è una conquista fondamentale per garantire compenso giusto a tutte le categorie di professionisti, ordinistiche e non, verso “contraenti forti”.
L’Anac con parere Anac 101/2024 in contrasto con il Codice dei contratti sostiene che le Stazioni appaltanti possono disapplicare, mentre Tar Lazio e Tar Veneto, nel confermare la perfetta vigenza e applicabilità della Legge, sostengono che le stazioni appaltanti non hanno facoltà di disapplicazione.  Infine, la Corte di Giustizia europea interviene sulla compatibilità tra “equo compenso” e principio della libera concorrenza.

L’Avvocato Andrea Musti, senior Associate di Studio e Componente Consulta CNEL Lavoro autonomo e Professioni, sarà speaker del Webinar organizzato per il 23 settembre con Il Sole 24 Ore.

Article by Atty Panciroli on Occupational Health and Safety Journal

This month our Partner Laura Panciroli summarises and clarifies what are the conditions for the effectiveness of the delegation of functions in criminal labour law, in her article for the Italian journal and website Ambiente & Sicurezza.

The regulatory reference is of course Legislative Decree 81 of 2008, of which the criminal lawyer analyses in particular articles 16 and 17. Atty Laura Panciroli provides a practical guide on the subject of legislation for the prevention of accidents at work, recalling its foundation in the Constitution and its purposes, the subjects involved and possible cases.

Laura Panciroli draws attention to the employer’s obligation to supervise the delegate’s proper performance of the transferred functions, an obligation that is deemed fulfilled if the verification and control model is adopted and effectively implemented.

She then addresses the issue of the delegate’s financial autonomy, pointing out the possible situations that arise in the event of the need for timely interventions whose costs do not fall within the foreseen and allocated budget.

Finally, the author recalls the functions that the employer cannot delegate, such as the appointment of the Prevention and Protection Service Manager (RSPP) and risk assessment. The employer, however, is not obliged to perform the tasks related to these functions himself, as he/she can assign them to someone with the necessary skills. She/he nevertheless retains his/her position of guarantee.

As for the possibility of sub-delegation, this must comply with the conditions for validity and effectiveness of the first degree delegation, including the duty of supervision.

By this Decree, Italian lawmakers implemented Directive 2019/1152/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council into Italian law, regarding transparent and predictable working conditions in the European Union.

Ghezzi Prize 2021 awarded to our trainee Sofia Bitella

The contest regarding the best J.D. dissertation in Italy had two winners this year, first equal: Dr Ambra Ferro and Dr Sofia Bitella. The important award is intended for graduates who have discussed their thesis in Italian universities during the academic year.

The topic of Sofia’s thesis “Beyond Subordination: Discipline and Protections for the New Generation of Self-Employed Workers” is an argument often targeted by Atty Pietro Ichino too, who already in 2010 presented the “Manifesto of the Second Generation of Self-Employed Workers” on his website. He emphasised how this form of work, which is different from the recognised and protected professions, is highly useful for Italian companies, but neither politics, nor the industrial relations system, nor the media have ever cared enough about it.

After more than a decade, the subject of study has remained complex, and the current new generation of self-employed workers is in a still-changing scenario.
