Working in Italy: infamous Italian post tries nepotism

This will only make sense if you understand Italians.
According to reports, the Italian postal service, Poste Italiane, is offering nepotism as a solution to its older and more expensive workers.
Elderly postal workers will now be able to offer their position to their children, in a move to save the postal service money.

Italy is a job market basket-case and it appears the only solution to get workers out of permanent contracts (rare as hens’ teeth in Italy) is for them to offer those contracts to their children.

This would mean the postal system won’t have to pay the benefits of accumulated long-term service.
Italy is a country full of small, family businesses as anyone attempting to get a foot in the door of anything not owned by their father would know.
To the Italian postal service, nepotism would seem to be a very natural solution to the problem of older workers not giving way to the young.

The retiring worker would need to be 58 years old and have completed 35 years of pension contributions, while the child would have to undergo a job interview.
