Forced to work from home? "That would be compatible with the constitution"

It is true that reports from employees who are wrongly forced into the office have dominated the debate for months.

But as depressing and critical as the cases are, it is anecdotal evidence.

There are no indications of widespread refusal by employers.

On the contrary: if you ask around at the large German trade unions, they report today, just as in the past few months, that the companies in their sectors are definitely cooperative.

A look at the numbers confirms this. In fact, the proportion of employees who work in the home office is by no means low.
