On 8th August, UniTS will celebrate the ‘National Day of Italian Labour Sacrifices in the World’, established to preserve the memory of the 136 Italians who lost their lives in a coal mine in Marcinelle in 1956. This was a tragedy that has become a symbol of Italian emigrants who were victims of accidents at work. 

This day highlights the significance of work as an irreplaceable driving force in the life of every individual: our Constitution, from its very first article, makes work a cardinal principle of our social system and the very foundation of the Republic.

The University is committed to training young people so that they can be the driving force and stimulus of our society in working contexts that guarantee dignity, security and prospects for professional growth.
