Hans-Jürgen Urban, board member of IG Metall responsible for health protection and social policy: “Accusing employees of making people sick is outrageous and fatal. Anyone who takes maternity leave out of the mothballs is attacking social security and promoting delayed illnesses. The German economy is not recovering with sick employees, but on the contrary with better working conditions.”
