The Labour Ministry should shortly published a note formalizing the rules for tax reduction on items of remuneration linked to productivity in 2014.

The law conversion of the so called “Poletti Law Decree” sets that the maximum duration of 36 months does not apply to fixed term staff leasing contracts drawn up by the “user” company.

Employer can exceed 20% threshold of the working staff through fixed-term hirings, paying an economic sanction.

The reform also introduces a new discipline to simplify and promote apprenticeship contracts. The Parliament has just approved Decree Law 34/2014 implementing a substantial reform of the discipline of short term contracts in Italy.

The Ministry of Parliamentary Relations, Maria Elena Boschi, announced that the government will resort again to the question of confidence in order to obtain the approval without amendments by Camera dei deputati.
