Il lavoro agile nella Pubblica Amministrazione

The short Italian history of agile working began well before the publication of Law 81/2017 that regulated its essential aspects. Leading the way, already ten years ago, were some large companies facilitated by advanced organisational contexts and good industrial relations that allowed them to anticipate the innovation of work and its 'geography' (not necessarily limited to places 'inside' traditional company perimeters). However, often forgotten is the circumstance that even the Public Administration (PA) had been able to place itself among the forerunners in the introduction of the institution of agile working, albeit having to contend with certain its atavistic rigidities (first and foremost, the delay in the digitalization of services and related procedures associated with the cultural gap in terms of organizational redesign) and having toto deal with a multifacetedness of operational contexts, of aims pursued and of territorial differences that complicated (and still make very intricate) the overall framework in which public work is expressed.
