Davide Saputo, Director of the Factory and HSE as well as founding member of the ALTREMANI Social Enterprise, represented us at the usual exchange of greetings between the inmates who work in the workshops of the Forlì Prison.
ALTREMANI is a non-profit organization of the Third Sector that wants to innovate and create welfare and social security. ALTREMANI has worked with the Forlì’s prison since 2006, developing over time into five distinct workshops: assembly, welding, carpentry, paper milling and shopper production.
CEPI collaborates with Techne (which deals with the overall direction of ALTREMANI) since about a decade, having already created various training programs for vulnerable people before joining the protocol for the prison workshops in 2018. We first commissioned pallets from the carpentry laboratory and later on machine panels from the assembly laboratory.
In July 2020, we launched the welding workshop with ALTREMANI, where inmates weld MIG (Metal-arc Inert Gas) and TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) in a room equipped with all the necessary machinery (suction system, welding machines, controlled cutting system, positioner for welding, grinding wheels , sockets, transpallets and others). In addition to creating many job opportunities, the laboratory trains high-level argonists with skills that include MIG and TIG welding and the reading of the technical drawing.
