Covid and work, the pandemic has mainly affected the self-employed. Out of ten lost places, eight are them. This was reported by the CGIA Studies Office. Between February 2020, the month preceding the advent of the pandemic crisis, and June of this year, our country lost 470 thousand employees, of which 378 thousand – equal to over 80 percent of the total – are autonomous. As if to say that in these 16 months the total number of VAT numbers present in Italy has decreased on average by 776 units per day. To have suffered the most negative effects from the crisis triggered by the pandemic were mainly small traders, merchants, collaborators and many freelancers. Among the employees, however, the total number of employees fell by “only” 92 thousand units. ” If eight out of ten people who lost their jobs in this dramatic historical period belong to the so-called people of VAT numbers, it is not clear why a particular attention has not yet emerged in the country capable of involving public opinion and politics on this social and economic drama. If the corporate crises of Gkn, Whirpool, Logista Italia, Gianetti Ruote, etc., have rightly been brought to the attention of public opinion by the media, little or almost no attention, on the other hand, have caused hundreds of thousands of very small businesses that, in total silence, have closed the shutter for good. Dramas that no one has been able to tell, broken working lives that, it seems, have no dignity, not even that of being told ”, underlines the CGIA.
