Swiss referendum

Swiss Flag

The swiss referendum will answer to the question about right gap between employee's basic wage and manager's salary, in other terms: could manager get a wage ceiling 12 times more than his employee 's salary?

My opinion:

Depend on the context... in Italy this referendum would be interesting, but the Italians have other problems to solve.

Germany to have minimum wage

Merkel Chancellor

Chacellor Merkel'd accept the Social Democrats measure for creating a coalition government. This kind of measure has two aspects, positive and negative, depends on who looks at:

• Change of European Policy;
• German resistance;

Firstly, this opening form part of Chancellor proves a more cooperative German attitude. Secondly, a clear scare of the Germans that this measure would make German exports less attractive. The European countries have noticed a positive signal that it would transform the economic situation.

My Opinion:

The European minimum wage law is an important decision but it would be a necessary target in Southern Europe too, where the economical crisis gets paid by youngers and unemployed. In Italy, the percentage of people that would have a sigh of relief by this decision is about 35%.
If the government approve a minimum salary, a lot of temporary jobs will disappear! This measure has just taken in parliament by M5S. However there are disagrees among politicians about the amount of wage and the financial economics needs.

Body Rental - what is? and why in Italy?

Bodies

If you want to find the job in IT field, you'll crash with this word Body Rental.

This word doesn't exist in the world but that's made in Italy; its mean is difficult and easy in the same time. In fact body rental is a way to move the consultants for programming activities, implementation, analisys of user requirements, etc...

The IT consultans are in the middles way between customer's employees and company's employees...

This way to allocate resources for project produces a lot of problems, especially in this crisis time; here's the problems:

• the consultant has become an object, not  a person with his needs, problems, etc...;
• the fee of a consultant is decreasing and so his salary for the gain of the ICT companies... (customers always ask a price lower than before for the consultant services, sò it was born a war among who gives the lower prices).  
• flexible contracts and high taxes produce an increase of this practice.
• the customer doesn't acknowledge and  he doesn't matter the economic treatment o the job conditions, problems, etc, but only the results, because the programming and other typical activities are considered as commodity, as Electrical energy in our home o the phone line , it's normal and planned.  

Results:

Studying Informatics isn't convenient anymore for low salary and a few career perspectives...
