Gucci Italy Employees Threaten Strike Over 2025 Welfare Payment Dispute

News summary

Approximately 1,000 retail and logistics employees at Gucci in Italy have declared a 'state of unrest,' a form of industrial action that may lead to strikes, in response to the company's refusal to pay a welfare bonus for 2025. The welfare package was introduced under a collective agreement covering 2022-2024, which the unions argue remains valid due to the principle of continued application, despite its expiration. Gucci had previously assured the continuation of these payments but now seeks to link them to a broader review of incentive schemes, a proposal the unions have rejected as unacceptable. The unions accuse Gucci of wasting time and disregarding the workers' commitments, threatening nationwide industrial action. Gucci, Kering's flagship brand, is currently facing significant financial struggles, with notable declines in sales and profits, and is awaiting a creative revamp under new leadership as part of its turnaround efforts. Gucci has not responded to requests for comment regarding the dispute.
