Unions representing workers at the LSM Composite plant in Vallata are asking local mayors and the Prefecture of Avellino to intervene in the ongoing labor dispute, even as company management says it intends to keep the Irpinia factory operating.

A meeting between LSM Composite management and the territorial branches of FILCTEM CGIL, FEMCA CISL and UILTEC UIL took place on 14 October 2026.

Company reports end of crisis procedure

According to the local report, management told the unions that the negotiated crisis-composition procedure, begun approximately one year earlier, had concluded positively. The ownership also stated its intention to continue industrial activities at the Vallata plant.

No workforce figures, production data, or detailed terms of the procedure were provided in the report.

Unions remain concerned

The unions said they remain concerned about external matters and unresolved disputes that could affect production stability and employment. The report does not identify those matters in detail.

Their stated priorities are safeguarding jobs, maintaining production continuity, and preserving the industrial presence in Vallata.

Request for institutional monitoring

The unions requested an urgent permanent discussion table involving local mayors. They also asked the Prefecture of Avellino to activate an institutional forum to monitor the dispute.

No independent institutional statement confirming the company's position or the requested meetings was included in the available report.
