Demands for Resumption of Traditional Office Work and Routine Testing Proposed by BDI
The Federation of German Industries (BDI) has outlined a series of recommendations to help Germany navigate its way out of the COVID-19 pandemic while ensuring public health and safety.
The BDI is advocating for an opening of the economy and society that is epidemiologically responsible. This includes a call for the federal government to fully integrate company doctors into the vaccination strategy and equip them with sufficient vaccine doses from June 1. The organisation is also urging the government to abolish blanket test requirements in air traffic, as it complicates processes.
To support the economy in Germany, the BDI is calling for an expansion of tax loss offsetting and better depreciation conditions. The BDI is using the increasing number of vaccinated and recovered employees as a benchmark, and is pushing for the introduction of a digital European vaccination passport to enable business travel.
In addition, the BDI is advocating for the abolition of blanket test requirements in air traffic, as it complicates processes. The organisation is also calling for a roadmap outlining the reduction and abolition of corona protective measures in businesses.
The BDI has rejected the release of vaccine patents and instead is calling for a global vaccination campaign. This global approach is also reflected in the call for the introduction of a digital European vaccination passport to facilitate travel.
Furthermore, the BDI is already calling for a pandemic protection concept that can react to future pandemics. This concept should be designed to provide a swift and effective response to any future health crises.
The German government aims to introduce a digital European vaccination passport for business travel starting June 1 to support the economy. The BDI is not specifying any new measures related to home office or testing requirements in businesses, but is instead focusing on the need for a responsible and coordinated approach to reopening the economy.
In conclusion, the BDI's recommendations prioritise the health and safety of the public, while also advocating for measures to support the German economy. The organisation's call for a global vaccination campaign, the introduction of a digital European vaccination passport, and the abolition of blanket test requirements in air traffic are all aimed at facilitating travel and business while ensuring public health and safety.
