AIR Campania staffing and labor disputes

Overview

The Unione Sindacale di Base (USB) labor union has escalated its demands regarding staffing shortages at AIR Campania. In late August, the union requested that the Campania Region and AIR Campania immediately update hiring rankings to fill vacancies, noting that several candidates had withdrawn from the process. This followed an announcement that 45 transport operators and 15 administrative staff were scheduled to begin service in September.

By late September, the USB organized a protest in Naples involving at least 60 people to picket the Campania Regional Transport Department. The union criticized the decision to hire only 45 new drivers, describing the move as a “drop in the ocean” that fails to address structural shortages. USB regional secretary Marco Sansone stated that current driver levels are insufficient to meet service demands, particularly for student commuters, and called for increased regional investment to ensure service regularity.
