Italy transport and labor strikes September–November 2026

Overview

The period from September to November 2026 is marked by sustained labor mobilization across Italy’s transport, education, and public sectors. In September, significant rail disruptions occurred due to a national strike from 7 to 8 September involving the FS Group, Trenitalia, and Trenord. Aviation faced disruptions via Poste Air Cargo on 11 September, airport security mobilizations on 13 September, and a national ENAV strike on 30 September affecting major hubs like Linate and Malpensa. Additionally, a 24-hour strike by the CUB union hit Genoa's AMT public transport on 17 September, and a rail strike in Emilia-Romagna occurred on 21 September. October saw intensified action. A multi-sector national strike on 2 October, proclaimed by Csle and Fi-si, targeted railways, maritime, schools, and healthcare. Subsequent disruptions included FS Security in Sicily (8 October), Milan's ATM (9 October), and Autolinee Toscane in Florence (10 October). A national SISA union strike on 16 October affected teaching and administrative staff. As the month concluded, a national general strike called by Usi-Cit, Usb, and Cobas for 30 October faced legal uncertainty. Following reports of violations regarding the ‘franchise rule’ during the All Saints’ Day holiday, the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport issued an ordinance to postpone transport strikes. While major operators like Trenitalia signaled regular schedules, the USB union declared its intention to defy the order, characterizing the intervention as an ‘unlawful restriction of workers’ rights’. November industrial action remains scheduled. Disruptions include an ENAV strike at Bari airport on 6 November, freight rail actions by SBB Cargo Italia on 10–11 November, and local transport strikes in Venice (ATVO) and Milan (ATM) on 13 November. Further strikes are scheduled for AMTAB in Bari on 14 November and ANM in Naples on 16 November. Additionally, Italo-NTV has called for an eight-hour national strike on 9 November.
