Legal and labor disputes involving Ilaria Salis

Overview

European Parliament member Ilaria Salis is facing legal and professional scrutiny regarding her management of staff and finances. Initially, Salis’s bank account was seized to cover approximately 7,000 euros in unpaid legal fees stemming from a Milan Labor Court ruling that ordered her to pay roughly 300,000 euros in compensation to two former parliamentary assistants, Valentina Dadda and François Gelmetti, following their dismissal without just cause.

A document attributed to “ex workers of Ilaria Salis” has surfaced, alleging a toxic work environment involving “daily mobbing” and the use of irregular employment contracts, such as freelance or VAT-based arrangements. The document further claims staff were expected to receive portions of their salaries “under the table” and were pressured to divert funds to support detained activists.

Salis is currently contesting the 300,000 euro ruling through the Court of Appeal of Milan. Her defense argues that she was unable to exercise her right to defense because legal notices failed to reach her. Regarding the dismissal of Dadda and Gelmetti, Salis claims that working with them became impossible because they attempted to use her mandate and public resources for their own personal interests. She has denied the allegations of mobbing. The court must now decide whether to annul the previous sentence and restart the case or proceed with an examination of the merits.
