A comprehensive catalog of measures was decided for both the Zuffenhausen and Leipzig plants. For example, production employees are required to maintain a minimum distance of 1.50 meters, to observe basic rules of conduct or to work with mouth-nose protection in defined areas.
On March 21, the company had stopped production in its two plants for two weeks and announced that it would continuously reassess the situation. Due to bottlenecks in global supply chains, the factories were closed for a total of six weeks because orderly production was not possible.
In the administration, the "mobile work" remains strong and meetings should take place via video or telephone conference. In addition, there is still a hold on business trips.
