Hello Angelo, could you please elaborate on the issue you're facing at work in Italy?
Im working in a hotel as a "facchino" but in reality I do other things like cleaning rooms, bringing wardrobe in houses
Hello Angelo. It seems like your job description doesn't match your actual responsibilities. Under Italian law:
- Your employer must give you tasks according to your contract.
- If you're performing tasks not in your contract, your employer may have to adjust your job description or pay.
Please consult a local employment lawyer for advice.

Please consult with a professional legal advisor for a detailed understanding.

Can I beat them too?
I'm sorry to hear about your situation, Angelo. No, it's not legal or advisable to resort to violence. Italian law protects against discrimination and violence. I urge you to report these incidents to the local police and seek legal counsel.
As a "Facchino" Do I need to spoil the rooms?
Hello Angelo. By "spoil the rooms", do you mean causing damage or deliberately making the rooms untidy? Could you clarify your question, please?
I mean do I need to strip the rooms?
As a "Facchino" do I need to strip the rooms?
Do I need to undress the room as a facchino?
As a "facchino," your responsibilities typically involve carrying luggage or other items. If your contract doesn't specify room cleaning tasks, including stripping rooms, these tasks may not be part of your job. Please consult your contract or a local employment lawyer for clarification.
As a facchino on floors?
As a "facchino," your primary tasks usually involve carrying luggage or handling guests' belongings. If your work involves floors, it should be specified in your contract. Consider seeking legal advice to clarify your job duties according to Italian labor law.
If my boss ask me to bring wardrobes on floors how should I behave?
If your boss asks you to move wardrobes, and it's not in your contract, you can:
- Politely discuss with your boss.
- Check your contract to see if this task is mentioned.
- Consult with an employment lawyer.
Remember, your safety is important and you shouldn't perform tasks that could harm you.
Can I report them for this?
Yes, Angelo, if you believe your employer is violating your contract or Italian labor laws, you can report them to the local labor authorities or seek legal advice. Remember, it's essential to document all incidents for evidence.
My contract includes food and board, but I can't bring food at home, is it legal?
Under Italian law, if your contract includes food and board, it usually implies meals at the workplace. If it doesn't specify taking food home, it's generally not allowed. Always refer to your contract or consult with a legal advisor for specifics.
But if someone is sick? How can he eat?
If an employee is sick in Italy, the employer is generally not responsible for providing meals unless specified in the contract. Sick employees may be eligible for health benefits or sick leave. Please check your contract or consult with a legal advisor for more information.
It has to be legal bringing food at home if someone is sick
Under Italian law, the legality of taking food home from work when someone is sick is dependent on the terms of your contract. If it's not explicitly stated, it's generally not allowed. It's advisable to consult with a legal advisor for specifics.
what about in mansion?
Hi Angelo, could you please clarify what you mean by "in mansion"? Are you asking about a specific legal issue related to living or working in a mansion?
Can i bring food at working mansion from work?
In Italy, whether you can bring food from your place of work to the mansion you're working in depends on the conditions set in your employment contract. If it's not specified, generally, it's not allowed. Please consult a legal advisor for more detailed advice.
