"Cooperation in 2009 reacted to the crisis - said the president of Piedmont Confcooperative Juvenal Gerbaudo , 1,100 member cooperatives in the region of which 360 social cooperatives - in fact, has optimized the internal factors, continuando a garantire servizi e occupazione, ma alcuni elementi esterni, quali i ritardi nei pagamenti e i mancati adeguamenti tariffari, possono determinare per le cooperative sociali il rischio che si entri in una fase di crisi strutturale".
"L’allarme lanciato in questi ultimi due anni dalla nostra cooperazione sociale piemontese sulle difficoltà della crisi sta emergendo con chiarezza anche dai dati di bilancio". Con preoccupazione, Elide Tisi, presidente di Federsolidarietà Piemonte, la federazione a cui aderiscono le cooperative sociali di Confcooperative, commenta l’analisi realizzata dal Centro Studi regionale di Confcooperative sui bilanci 2009. E’ stato analizzato un campione pari al 30% delle 360 cooperative To date members, of which 60% are type A, ie deliver services to people (children, families, children, elderly, disabled, psychiatric, drug users) and 40% type B, whose mission is job placement disadvantaged people.
continues the negative trend of 2008 on the outcome of operations: in 2009 23% of cooperatives has a negative performance, against 19% in 2008 and 12% in 2007. It confirmed the projection of Federsolidarietà Piedmont, shown in May 2010, relatively higher incidence of labor costs on turnover (64.2% in 2009, 60.4% in 2008, 59.7% in 2007) as a result of 'increase labor cost is not compensated by adequate tariff increases.
For cooperatives are unacceptable long delays in payments by the PA that, year after year, continue to grow and in 2009 came to an average of 153 days from date of invoice, with peaks up to 365, against 110 in 2008 and that they brought with them an increase in short that reached + 280% over the previous year.
You can not hide the fact that these data are very discouraging - highlights Tisi - especially at a time in which management of the system of welfare services in Piedmont can not be left at the mercy of reality that have nothing to do with true cooperation, and in turn, to survive, they use tools to dumping. Also because survival can no longer be the only goal for our associates. Our cooperation has in fact tried to act with again in the middle of the working members and citizens who use our services. He in fact used, where possible, their financial reserves or attempted, using the laws of 2004, 23 regional and 18 in 1994 to strengthen its capital (+4.56% in 2009 compared to 2008) and to develop virtuous paths innovation and reorganization, even using elements of contract law and corporate affairs, unable to avoid impact on employment (Given the job has remained fairly constant: about 17 000 workers are between shareholders and employees, of whom over 1200 belonging to disadvantaged groups, declared under the law 381/91, with a feminine presence that exceeds 70%). He also found enhanced the action of raising more than ever necessary to strengthen existing services, are no longer sustainable because of the inadequacy of the rates approved by the public, mobilizing private resources and putting into practice the constitutional principles of subsidiarity.
In other words, our associates have, together with our federation, accepted the challenge of the crisis on the horizon but the overall situation of this sector Economic and social is not improving. The national economic survey Confcooperative on the forecast of the third quarter 2010 show negative expectations for the coming months and with reference to employment, in terms of turnover. The same opinion is the note on the economic cooperatives in the province of Turin (50% of social cooperatives are members of Federsolidarietà Piemonte Torino) prepared by the Chamber of Commerce of Turin in the second quarter of 2010 shows that the balance between statements of increase and decrease in turnover has a negative sign for the co-operation of type A, amounting to - 2.5% versus the first quarter of 2010. Always the same note highlights that, as regards the cooperation of type B, the estimated revenue in the second half of 2010, compared to the first, have a negative balance equal to -5.6%.
The data shown here - ends Tisi - leave no doubt. While we are faced with the desire of our companies to withstand the crisis, the other the context in which work is rich in elements that limit the keeping and recovery. And 'therefore necessary that each one according to his ability to intervene to prevent this area are from one day to properly use the heavy layoffs, still very low: in fact today in Piemonte our demands were concerned solely with 25 jobs. "
should strengthen all these instruments are already at the regional level, such as laws 23/04 and 18/94, which in 2009 helped to address specific situations. Should continue at all levels, including institutional, to invest in welfare. This is indeed an area which not only provides services to the population, but it can become a special area of \u200b\u200bdevelopment and employment. In addition, we consider it essential, at this time of crisis, strengthen the confidence of public authorities to co-operatives type B that fit to work for disadvantaged people, giving them the dignity of work, avoiding the increase in welfare costs and harmonizing instruments on the whole region.
E 'must then continue on the path of cooperation and the building of a community welfare with private foundations and banks, with other third sector organizations and trade unions.
