Logistics workers at GLS branches in Umbria and Rieti announced two days of strikes scheduled for August 24 and August 26. Organized by Filt Cgil Umbria and Uiltrasporti Umbria, the mobilization covers locations including Città di Castello, Perugia, Foligno, and Terni. Union representatives cited unresolved issues such as unpaid wages and overtime, poor vehicle conditions, and inadequate facility security. The unions are demanding direct negotiations with GLS Italy, claiming that previous commitments from local service providers have been “systematically unfulfilled” and seeking intervention to ensure workers' rights. On August 26, strikes and protests proceeded in Foligno and other branches. Unions highlighted specific grievances regarding unsafe vehicles and poor working conditions, including the lack of functional air conditioning in delivery vehicles during high temperatures. The dispute is further complicated by a potential change in local franchise management.
