Stuttgart (dpa / lsw) - Minister of Culture Susanne Eisenmann (CDU) is skeptical of the federal and state resolutions on the subject of home office.

"Until the number of infections has dropped noticeably, it is desirable that as many people as possible work from the home office in order to reduce contacts," said Eisenmann.

Many employers and employees have already implemented this appeal.

"However, there are also many professions in which home office and more flexible working hours are difficult or simply not possible - for example in nursing, in the supermarket or in emergency care in daycare centers and elementary schools," said Eisenmann, who is also the CDU's top candidate for the state election .

In addition, companies should not be burdened with excessive bureaucracy.

The federal and state governments had previously decided that in future employers should enable their employees to work from home wherever the activities allow.

The regulation should apply until March 15th.

The lockdown will be extended until February 14th after the decision.

In addition, there should be a stricter mask requirement.

Overall, Eisenmann was satisfied with the decisions.

"We already have tough and effective measures in Baden-Württemberg, for example a curfew from 8 p.m. to 5 p.m.," said the CDU politician of the German Press Agency in Stuttgart.

“In this respect, it is to be welcomed that the federal and state governments have decided to continue the previous measures, but have refrained from radical and incomprehensible tightening.

Nothing significant will change for Baden-Württemberg. "

Eisenmann had already warned of the tightening of the lockdown before the meeting.
