Fast fashion, sfruttamento del lavoro e tutela della salute e sicurezza nella filiera: considerazioni a partire dal primo decreto di amministrazione giudiziaria del Tribunale di Firenze

Abstract

This essay addresses the relationship between labour exploitation and complex organisations, from the perspective of the repressive and going-concern instruments established by the legal system to counter phenomena of «modern slavery» within subcontracting chains. Starting from a recent judgment of the Court of Florence, the work focuses on analysing the requirements, differences, and critical issues of the various protective techniques, both criminal and quasi-criminal, safeguarding the dignity of labour within the enterprise, and reconstructs the features of these legal instruments as defined by the most recent case law of the Court of Milan. The research highlights the need to rationalise preventive and punitive measures, as well as the potential of Legislative Decree No. 231/2001, in light of supranational due diligence obligations, to emerge as the preferred framework for detecting phenomena that harm the individual personality of workers within corporate settings.
