Germany is debating the introduction of 3G rules in the workplace. This is nothing new for the Traublinger bakery in Feldkirchen, Bavaria, because as a food company, the bakery has always had very high health and hygiene standards. However, the organizational effort and the documentation required a lot of time, says managing director Heinrich Traublinger Jr. Because employees without complete vaccination protection are tested here under supervision. “Of course, the test might take two or three minutes, but you have to do it for each employee, you have to do it twice a week, then you have to label them with your name, with the date, you have to keep them for two weeks. These tests . And you have to repeat that over and over again, the whole thing. Yes, it is cost-intensive, it is time-consuming and the costs are unfortunately borne by the employer. ” The vaccination rate in the company is high, but not everyone is ready to be immunized. “We have these employees too. You can’t force someone to get vaccinated. Certainly there are discussions with these employees from time to time as to whether they would be willing to be vaccinated, but if they say they don’t want to be vaccinated, then they do he doesn’t want to. Unfortunately, we have to accept. That’s the way it is. ” As a private citizen, however, he has a clear stance, says Traublinger. “I’m not saying that as a representative of the association, I’ll tell you as Heinrich Traublinger: Maybe politicians should say that I was wrong. A mandatory vaccination would be necessary if this were the right approach. Personally, I would support it.” But there is no compulsory vaccination, not even in the Free State of Bavaria. A disaster was declared there this week in order to be able to better counter the increasing number of infections. Prime Minister Söder called for new measures from the federal government on Thursday, including the 2G regulation for all of Germany.
