The need to adapt to the economic system promoted by the European Union generated a wave of reform in the field of labor law that invested Italy and France. This essay explores the impact of the Italian Jobs Act on the contractual protection of the worker. In particular: i) the weakening of the concept of the employment relationship as a tool for the realization of the worker understood as both a human being and a professional; and ii) the emphasis given to the protection against discriminations. The focus on the latter represents the link with the French reform and creates the premises for the author’s considerations and questions on the idea of the human being promoted by the European Union: whether it exalts libertarian individualism, or rather safeguards the traditional relational concept of the person inserted in a community.

Abstract
The need to adapt to the economic system promoted by the European Union generated a wave of reform in the field of labor law that invested Italy and France. This essay explores the impact of the Italian Jobs Act on the contractual protection of the worker. In particular: i) the weakening of the concept of the employment relationship as a tool for the realization of the worker understood as both a human being and a professional; and ii) the emphasis given to the protection against discriminations. The focus on the latter represents the link with the French reform and creates the premises for the author’s considerations and questions on the idea of the human being promoted by the European Union: whether it exalts libertarian individualism, or rather safeguards the traditional relational concept of the person inserted in a community.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
