In the recent public debate that accompanied the approval of the Directive on adequate mini-mum wages in the European Union, questions arose about the state of collective bargaining in Italy and how many workers it covers. Italy, despite being a country historically characterised by a consolidated system of industrial relations, still does not have definitive, formally recog-nised statistics on collective bargaining coverage which can be used as a reference for policy-making. Based on these premises, we examined, using official data, the number of National Collective Bargaining Agreements (Ncba), the contracting unions and the number of employ-ees actually covered both in the private sector, excluding the agricultural and domestic sectors, and in the public sector. The research shows a very high rate coverage of the Ncba signed by the largest confederal unions (Cgil, Cisl, Uil) and an anomalous proliferation of Ncba which, although covering a small number of workers, can exert a downward pressure on the wages and conditions set in the more well-established and representative Ncba.
