In the dispatch center in Saxony-Anhalt, where more than 3,000 people work, the work started again after about 24 hours on Wednesday evening. Between 70 and 100 employees were supposed to be involved in preparatory work during the night shift, a company spokesman said in the evening. From Thursday on then the traffic jam at the parcel shipments in the center in Saxonia-Anhalt should be dissolved.

Hermes managing director Andreas Stumpf said that there was great concern in the workforce of the logistics center. "Our job now will be to educate employees, to inform them what actually happened here, so they can go back to work."
