The demonstrators are outraged by the proposed by the Italian government labor market reforms.Storm run primarily against the planned easing of employment protection. Hundreds of thousands participated in protests in Rome. According to the organizers even more than a million people attended the final rally.
"We want to work for everyone, but work with rights", shouted to the leader of the biggest union CGIL, Susanna Camusso, the crowd. "We are here and not going away. We will use all our strength to fight to change the government policy". Camusso announced the next day of action for the November 8th.

"We demand investment in the future," said one of the protest leaders. The younger generation will not come to terms with the uncertain labor situation.
The plans of the full-bodied be incurred as a reformer young leaders Renzi and his government provide to relax the safeguards for employees in their first years of employment in order to encourage companies to new hires. Renzi wants to tackle the high unemployment in Italy. Among young people the rate is currently 44 percent. Many young workers also receive temporary contracts.
Unions are up in arms
Trade unions and the left wing of the Democratic Party Renzis (PD) fear a loosening of employment protection and the disclosure of employee rights. In addition, the protesters are angry about austerity measures, with the help of Italy will comply with the deficit rules of the European Union. His opponents accuse Renzi, although he trimmed workers' rights, but do nothing to address the causes of the economic crisis.
Renzi argued against, the strong employment protection would deter firms from which to hire new employees and would contribute to the economic weakness of Italy. He'll fight through the liberalization of the labor market even against resistance, Renzi had repeatedly stressed in recent weeks. Approval for his plans got Renzi from Brussels. The encrusted structures on the labor market in the country are from an EU perspective, one of the reasons for the economic weakness of Italy, which does not find a way out of the recession.
The protest in Rome was organized by several unions, including Italy's largest employee representation CGIL. It was the first major demonstration against the PD Renzis since taking office in February. Traditionally, the party close to the trade unions.
