Renato Brunetta announces reforms, hiring and a new contract. It promises to free managers from the fear of signing up, to simplify the system, including the notorious “Track” procedures, environmental impact assessment. But he also makes a “mea culpa” for budget cuts and the blocking of state rotation during his previous experience as minister of public service. Saying those words must not have been easy. So first he praised the public employees, because many forget that behind the acronym Pa there are doctors, magistrates, teachers, nurses.

He then underlined the importance of “social cohesion”, of the need for everyone to understand that we are in an “Italian moment”, in which everyone is called to do their part to guarantee a future for the country. And he rejected an “alphabet” of priorities for public administration. Upon reaching the letter “c” for human capital, Renato Brunetta apologized for having had to act with cuts in the past, starting with blocking rotation. But they were, he said, all “necessary” things. That now times have completely changed, Brunetta made clear in the two hours of hearing in Parliament during which he illustrated his program. Full of novelty. Starting from the turnover.

The minister’s intention is not just to unlock hiring. The idea is to do more: reverse the trend. Between 2019 and 2020, the Public Administration lost approximately 190,000 employees. Another 300,000 people are expected to leave in the next three to four years. In 2021, for the first time, there will be more retired former civil servants (3 million) than active civil servants. But, above all, the average age is 50.7 years. 16.9% of the total are over 60 years old, only 2.9% are under 30. To reverse this relationship, it is necessary to go beyond billing. How? “To strengthen the generational renewal and the introduction of young people with new skills, one could hypothesize,” wrote Brunetta in the document left at the hearing, “a voluntary incentive mechanism to leave people close to retirement age and with a inadequate professionalism to take on the challenge of technological innovation or is no longer motivated to stay in the public sector.
The idea, rebuilt by Messenger, would be to borrow similar experiences from the private sector expansion contract. That is, the possibility of an early departure of up to 5 years towards retirement to encourage new hires. The ministry has already started a discussion with the European Commission to understand whether such a measure can be financed with the Recovery Funds, given that it would produce savings over time. The other part of the plan, the rules of which will be included in a “decree” to be approved in April, refers to competitions. To implement the National Recovery and Resilience Plan, we will proceed with the specific temporary hiring.
The portal
A “portal” for recruitment will be developed. All those who belong to a professional order can immediately register on the portal: engineers, architects, geologists. Since they have already taken a state exam, which is comparable to a written test, they can only be called and hired with an interview. The contracts will have a duration of 5 years, the moment of Recovery. Then they can decide whether to remain in the Public Administration or to return to their activities. Access from the private world to the public will also be simplified, increasing the quota, now limited, of those who can access with the direct call, which is technically called article 19, section 6. Then ordinary tenders will be released. There is already an interview with the CTS to decide how to proceed. The solution has already been found. The competitions will be digital and will be held remotely. But not from home. Candidates must go to public facilities, which can be Universities, Fairs or other places, where they can take the tests.
Then there will be measures to overcome the “signature block” of executives. In the first place, the norms included in the simplification decree of July last year that limit the prosecution for fiscal damage and abuse of office by managers, will be extended until 2026. That is, for the entire duration of the plan Recovery. Without the extension, which should be included in the decree, they would have expired at the end of the year. But more structural reforms will also come. Brunetta is working on it together with the Minister of Justice Marta Cartabia. The idea is to introduce a government insurance policy for executives. “The centrality of people within the programmatic guidelines presented today is certainly a fundamental aspect – commented Gianni Dominici, General Manager of Forum Pa”.
