(Adnkronos) - “Noi parliamo di un welfare complementare al Welfare state. Quest’ultimo vive naturalmente della fiscalità generale e delle contribuzioni obbligatorie, e quindi del benessere dell’economia del Paese. Il sistema di Welfare complementare ha bisogno di un sistema di regole certe e noi andiamo verso un futuro molto incerto. I dati legati alle grandi trasformazioni e alle grandi transizioni che stiamo vivendo, ma soprattutto alla demografia, devono farci riflettere”. Così Pierangelo Albini, direttore area Lavoro, Welfare e Capitale umano di Confindustria, a margine del 'Global Welfare Summit', il più importante evento sul welfare globale in Italia, in svolgimento a Villa Miani a Roma, organizzato da Italian Welfare e patrocinato dal ministero del Lavoro e delle Politiche sociali.

00:00We are talking about a complementary welfare, so it is evident that it is complementary to
00:10the welfare state.
00:11The welfare state naturally lives on the general taxation and on the mandatory contributions
00:17and therefore naturally lives on the well-being of the country's economy.
00:21So it is clear that when the country grows, it preserves its manufacturing backbone,
00:28it also preserves its ability to generate wealth for the benefit of the community.
00:33The complementary welfare system naturally needs a system of certain rules and we are
00:40moving towards a very uncertain future.
00:42We have data that are naturally linked to the great transformations, the great transitions
00:49that we are experiencing, but above all the demography that must make us reflect.
00:54So today, when we think about the themes of integrative welfare, we must always keep
01:00in mind that it is integrative to the welfare state.
01:04The welfare state is not only a characterizing element of our country, but it is also an
01:09element that characterizes Europe and our way of doing business, of being in business,
01:14of building a community of a certain type.
01:16So it is evident that these are values to be preserved, because they are identity values
01:23and we must be very careful about how we regulate the public welfare system, which was designed
01:30in a period very different from the current one and which therefore must be redefined in some way.
01:36Because today the issue is no longer just that of sustainability, but also that of equity
01:42of those who contribute to the costs of public welfare and therefore also of complementary welfare.
