Workers from the Unicredit bank in Milan’s Gae Aulenti business used their COVID Green Passes to enter the workplace on Friday, after it became mandatory for employees to have in order to work.

“I found it pretty comfortable. A scanner is helping us to enter, technology is useful in this case,” an employee, Salvatore De Cristoforo, said after entering the facility.

Around a dozen protesters stood outside the Palazzo Sormani denouncing the new measures put in place to curb the coronavirus.

“We are asking for COVID tests for unvaccinated people for everyone, for free. I want to stress that this is a protest involving both vaccinated and unvaccinated people, not a sanitary protest,” a protester stated.

All Italian citizens working in the public or private sector are now required to carry a ‘Green Passport’ with a QR code as proof of full vaccination, recent recovery from infection or a negative test within the last 48 hours.

Workers without the health pass are suspended without pay and could face a fine of up to €1,500 ($1,730). Employers also face fines if they allow employees to work without the Green Pass.
