The criticism in the district committee about the expansion of the personnel positions in the district office has caused the responsible department head Maria Rode to make a plea for the strengthening of the personnel in the plenary assembly of the district councils "as the final decision-maker".
Specifically, it is about 22.45 additional jobs.
This means that the personnel budget in 2022 will be 20.6 million euros - an increase not least due to higher groupings and collective bargaining agreements of 1.2 million euros.
Corona is a "completely exceptional situation" for employees, which has been challenging employees for almost two years.
Set up test and vaccination centers, build the health department out of nothing within a few months on a multitude of staff, and secure critical infrastructure is one thing.

At the same time, however, it is also important to master the diverse consequences of Corona in society - from short-time work to looking after children and young people to public relations work - as a district office in the interests of the citizens.
Rode: "As the head of department responsible for resources at the district office, I see my primary task as being to maintain this stability and performance."
Setting the course for the future
In addition to numerous crisis issues, everything in the district office was done to ensure that the planning and deliberations progress in order to set the course for the future.
This included various reforms of the subsidiaries in place.
"All of this was done with the existing district staff." A budget and position planning is "policy poured into numbers".
The members of the district council defined what is important and set political priorities.
This is the framework for implementation by the administration.
A stable staffing is essential for this.

Rode emphasized that around two thirds of the new positions were owed to various legal requirements and reforms.
In addition, there would be an increasing number of cases and key political issues such as mobility.
Another third is accounted for by the “District Office of the Future”, which not only includes the replacement building, but also to set up the District Office digitally, service-oriented and future-proof and to rethink processes.
Bloodletting by future retirees is foreseeable
In addition, Rode pointed out that a quarter of the employees of the district office will retire within the next ten years.
"As an employer, we have to come up with something about how we can close the resulting gap and continue to attract the skilled workers we need."
"We need manpower"
District Administrator Olaf von Löwis (CSU) also stated: “We need manpower.” These positions are what is urgently needed.
"Because we as the district office do not want to slow down", emphasized Löwis, "but offer citizen-friendliness and support citizens in their concerns."
