Issue 02/24:
We entrepreneurs have lost a lot of trust in the federal government
"There can only be a strong country with a strong economy," says Employers' President Dr. Rainer Dulger in the current Viewpoint and goes on to explain why entrepreneurs in our country have lost a lot of trust in the German government. The current issue of Agenda also sheds light on the issue of skills shortages and presents a current BDA position paper in which we break down which reforms are necessary to promote the employment of older workers. The commentary of the week by Dr. Andreas Eurich is also dedicated to this topic: against the backdrop of the increasing demand for qualified specialists, he calls for a rethink of the skills shortage - the future belongs to mixed-age teams. You can read about these and other topics in the current BDA agenda.
