Ravensburg - Baden-Württemberg's Economics Minister Nicole Hoffmeister-Kraut (CDU) calls for concrete legislative proposals for health and safety at work from Federal Labor Minister Hubertus Heil (SPD) for the home office.
«We don't want to compromise on health and safety at work.
First and foremost, we now have to regulate more flexible working time models, issues relating to accident insurance protection and tax issues, ”said Hoffmeister-Kraut of the“ Schwäbische Zeitung ”(Wednesday).
"So far I have missed specific proposals from the responsible federal minister."
Hoffmeister-Kraut warns of new bureaucratic hurdles. «We neither need a quick shot on the legal regulations for home office nor additional bureaucracy. In the Corona crisis, we experience every day that companies are very pragmatic about working from home. ». In many cases, these positive experiences would continue to have an impact after the crisis. A legal right to work from home, as Heil is planning, would only cause additional bureaucracy.
