Chapter 7 in Adjudicating Employment Rights, 2014, pp 114-128 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Unlike many other countries in this study, Italy does not have labour courts. There are, however, specialist chambers within the civil court system. Moreover, the process of adjudicating substantive employment rights is supported not only by such specialist chambers but also by special procedural rules that are intended to provide workers with speedy and effective protection where employment law has been breached. Although the roots of this go back many years (Taruffo, 1980), the most important reforms date from the 1970s (in particular to law 533/1973 for individual hearings and to art. 28 of law 300/1970 for cases involving trade unions). Since then the system for individual employment rights claims has been amended, but not radically altered, several times.
