In Italy in a year of COVID lost 345000 “not guaranteed”<\/h1>\n

The Study Office of the CGIA of Mestre recalls that, between February 2020 and last March, the employment of the “people of VAT numbers” fell by 6.6 percent<\/em><\/h3>\n

After a year of COVID, 345 thousand “not guaranteed” have closed. That is, the most fragile and least protected part of the Italian labor market.
\nWe are talking about the people of VAT numbers who, compared to other workers, when they lose their jobs cannot count on any social security or income support measures.
\nThese people are left with the despair of professional failure and the nagging question of how to find a new job.
\nThe Study Office of the CGIA of Mestre recalls that, between February 2020 and last March, the employment of the so-called “people of VAT numbers” fell by 345 thousand units, equal to a contraction of 6.6%.
\nIn this pandemic year, many artisans, shopkeepers, small traders, freelancers and self-employed workers have not made it and have been forced to throw in the towel for good.<\/p>\n

4,893,000 self-employed workers in March 2021<\/h4>\n

In March of this year the total number of self-employed workers in Italy stood at 4,893,000.
\nIf in the last 13 months the situation has been very heavy, in the coming months the situation is not likely to improve.
\nHowever, it should be remembered that, according to a recent survey carried out by ISTAT, 292 thousand companies are in a situation of serious difficulty.<\/p>\n

In Italy, the tax burden has risen to 43.1%<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

There is an added value that touches 63 billion euros<\/h4>\n

They are activities that give job to 1,9 million attache’s and produce a value added that grazes the 63 billions of euro.
\nThe average number of employees per company in this group of companies at risk of closure is 6.5.
\nWe are talking about micro-activities that, heavily affected by the health emergency, have not adopted any strategy to respond to the crisis and, consequently, are in danger of permanently lowering their shutters.<\/p>\n

In Italy, the crisis has hit the economy of the South the hardest<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The production sectors most affected by these 292 thousand activities are textiles, clothing, printing, furniture and construction.
\nIn the services sector, on the other hand, the difficulties of the restaurant industry, accommodation\/hotels, car trade and other sectors such as retail, rental, travel, gaming and sports stand out.
\nIt is evident that not all of these economic operators have closed or will close their doors definitively in the coming months, however, with the release of redundancies expected this fall, many of the employees of these small businesses risk finding themselves without regular employment.<\/p>\n

One hundred and sixty years of Italy, not even one of federalism…<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n
