Climate change: New study shows dramatic effects on Arctic and Antarctic

The Berlin House of Representatives plans to extend working hours for civil servants in order to make the administration more efficient. This measure aims to optimize the work processes and increase the performance of the administration. The Association of the Officials reacts to these plans and warns of possible stresses for the employees.

The association argues that longer working hours could lead to a deterioration in work-life balance and endanger the health of the civil servants. There is also a risk that the quality of the work will decrease due to overload and stress. The association therefore calls for a comprehensive analysis of the effects of such a measure before it is implemented.

The discussion about the extension of working hours for civil servants shows the tension between increasing efficiency and the protection of employee rights. It remains to be seen how the government will react to the concerns of the association and whether compromises may be found to take into account the interests of everyone involved.
