PSI expresses solidarity with workers and communities affected by recent earthquakes in Italy

The global union federation Public Services International extends our solidarity and condolences to PSI union members, their families and communities who’ve experienced trauma or losses caused by the serious earthquakes in northern Italy this spring.

Seventeen people are now known to have died and another 350 were hurt in the 5.8 magnitude quake on Tuesday 29 May, the second major quake to hit the Emilia Romagna region in just over a week. Most of the people killed died in their workplaces.

Our thoughts are with you, and we stand ready to provide resources and financial assistance as needed.
