Italian transport security contracts hit scrutiny over protocols and labor protections

In Campania, the introduction of private, sworn guards on Air Campania public buses has sparked debate. The trade union Confsal calls for precise protocols, citing legal uncertainties and concerns for worker protection.

Separately, the Palermo Falcone Borsellino airport’s security services remain with a temporary consortium of Securpol Spa and Metronotte d’Italia, after the Italian Competition Authority (CGA) approved the contract. Both cases highlight ongoing discussions about the deployment of private security in Italy’s transport sector and the need for clear regulatory frameworks.
