A brief history
we haven’t a large number of good practices concerning Women Over 50. But we have a case that is worth telling .
.
Three women over50 , in Taormina area , had lost their jobs , as maids , employed to maintenance rooms in Hotel
Were probably
considered old for
those tasks .
Another woman over 50 had lost her job in a small company that sold sandwiches and hot dogs, as street vendors. The owner of the company was her husband , but business is not going well and they had been forced to close the activity .
In Roccalumera operates a cooperative named Coop. Città Viva , with social aims . It’s a non profit organization ( Social Economy ) .
The coop Città Viva together with our organization has prepared a program to re-enter to the work these women, whose families were in big trouble after they lost their jobs
Having examined the basic skills of that four women 50+, and we have identified a common ability to cook, especially traditional foods of the area and the Mediterranean diet.
After a training course the women were prepared to become cooks to work in the local school canteen and prepare meals to children
Even today, these four women work as cooks to prepare meals for school pupils .
It 'a seasonal job (7 months a year), but it allows them to have an income and be able to integrate with the assistance for the unemployed, these women receive in the months that do not work. Also being able to have, as a result, paid retirement
