An agreement with the work council to make easier the life of senior shift workers.

Aging is becoming one of the hot issues as the pension age has been postponed by law in Italy.  

At LFoundry we consider carefully this aspect, above all on the case of shift workers, as our shift is 12 hours based. For this reason yesterday we have signed an agreement with the work council that goes in the direction to make easier the life of senior shift workers. The standard shift is designed on a scheme of 2 consecutive working days + 2 consecutive working nights. With this agreement we will experiment a shift scheme based on 1 working day + 1 working night. We believe that in this way we can mitigate the impact of the shift schedule, optimizing the well-being of senior shift people at work with positive consequences on their engagement and performance. 
The experimentation will start with a limited number of people and the selection will be based upon the seniority and age
