We come from far away

Firm History

The history of the Cicotti Consulting Firm began in 1955, when the Head of the Bologna Regional Labor Inspectorate granted  Mrs. Elena Gualdi, married Cicotti, the Atuthorization n.1 for the “keeping and regularization of company documents concerning labor, social security and social assistance“.

The progenitor actively participated in the work of the ANCL (National Association of Labor Consultants), which led to the recognition of the professional order of Labor Consultants with the law of 11 January 1979, no. 12.
