Summary
It is envisaged, among other things, to abolish the telephone sick leave possible since the end of 2023 under certain conditions. But: “Do nothing and just leave our country in this status quo, and this status quo has built up over 20 years, that would be the worst thing you could do to this country right now.” The measures are necessary because of the backlog of reforms in Germany.
