More short-time work

In the second half of the year, the labor market in the main-rhon region proved robust despite the weak economic phase in some sectors. In october, this sector remained in very good shape, with an unemployment rate of 2.9 percent and 7246 unemployed people. In september, 289 more unemployed persons were paid, and the rate was 0.1 percentage points higher. In the previous year, the level of unemployment was somewhat lower, with an unemployment rate of 2.7 percent. At that time, 582 fewer people were registered as unemployed. In the district of bad kissingen, 1667 people were out of work in october (2.9 percent).

"The decline in the number of young people under 25 years of age is particularly noteworthy. Compared to the previous month, the number was reduced by 159 unemployed young people. After the summer break, youth unemployment usually declines again significantly. Many young people who were not taken on after their training have now been able to find a job with another employer in october", thomas stelzer, head of the agency for labor schweinfurt, reports. The number of people leaving employment and the number of people entering employment balanced each other out in october. 925 people registered as being unemployed. The number of people moving from employment to unemployment was almost the same, at 929.

The number of companies that had registered short-time work for their employees doubled compared to the previous month. Since september, the number of establishments increased from 29 to 56 in october and the number of people involved increased by 992 to 1657 workers. A year ago, the figures were at a significantly lower level. In october 2018, 14 companies reported short-time work for 129 employees.

"Due to the weak economic phase in some sectors of the labor market, companies are using short-time work to secure their employees. Due to the international economic uncertainties, the demand of companies for advice on the subject of short-time work is increasing significantly. The focus is on the automotive industry and its suppliers, as well as mechanical engineering, stelzer continues.

In october, 672 unemployed people with a refugee background were paid in the main-rhon region. This corresponded to 9.3 percent of all registered unemployed persons. In september, there were 57 more unemployed people with a refugee background.

Job seekers had access to a pool of 4762 vacancies this month. This was 275 fewer than in the previous month and 730 fewer than in october 2018.

As usual for the season, employers’ demand for workers increased slightly again in october. In the month under review, the placement specialists in the joint employer service of the employment agency and the job centers accepted 793 new job offers. This was 54 job applications or 7.3 percent more than in september.

Jobs in the healthcare sector

Demand for personnel was particularly rough in the health and social services sector. Here there were 711 vacancies to be filled. The area of trade and the maintenance and repair of motor vehicles also recorded a rough demand for workers with 540 vacancies. 502 of the jobs to be filled were in the manufacturing sector. Applicants also had good opportunities in the construction industry. There were 488 vacancies

It is decided. Ralf pohl is the SPD candidate for the state parliamentary elections in the constituency of kronach/lichtenfels. The kronach district chairman won clearly against his lichtenfels colleague sebastian muller on saturday morning in theisenort sports home. With 62:22 votes, the delegates of the two district associations voted for the 53-year-old.
"I am very pleased with the result, which is an incentive and motivation for me", so ralf pohl. His competitor sebastian muller congratulated him and said: "i am a little sad, but the disappointment is limited". The 30-year-old, who a little later was unanimously proposed as a two-vote candidate for the state parliament, now sees a possibility that the two counties of kronach and lichtenfels can represent the region with two SPD candidates in the state parliament next year.

Ehrhardt renounces

During the meeting susann biedefeld was elected as district candidate. The member of the state parliament from altenkunstadt received only 61 votes out of 81 valid votes. Accordingly, the applause was limited.
Some delegates were upset that the candidate was traveling instead of being there in person. Some of those present had firmly expected timo ehrhardt, the mayor of ludwigsstadt, to be the SPD candidate for the district parliament.
The latter conceded that he had made himself available if no proposal had been made. But he thinks it is right that the people of lichtenfels have a candidate from their ranks after the decision for the state parliament. "It is known", so ehrhardt, who was unanimously proposed as a two-vote candidate for the district parliament.

Committed speech

Before that, the two candidates for the state parliament gave their speeches. Ralf pohl, who is often rather reserved, gave a committed speech. Some comrades were surprised and astonished. The kupser referred to his good result in the last state election, in which he only narrowly failed to get into the maximilianeum. "I don't want to become anything, I want to make a difference for the people", stressed pohl.
He also made it clear in which area he sees an urgent need for action. Among other things, he mentioned a good infrastructure and better rail and transport links. In the area of education, he spoke out in favor of a comprehensive school, because only in this way does he see a possibility of maintaining the schools in the rural area in the long term.
According to him, local public transport must be expanded, for example, with call buses, shared taxis, etc. "The free state must demand such facilities in the long term!" He clearly spoke out against the construction of power lines. "It can't be that the other regions get highways and expressways and we get power lines!" And he stressed that the SPD in bavaria could not match the personnel and money of the CSU. "If we have to achieve something, we need the better ideas!"
Prior to this, the mayor of lichtenfels, andreas hugerich, had officially proposed sebastian muller as the SPD candidate for the state parliamentary elections. "He stands for a new way, which our party so urgently needs", he said about the 30-year-old. "I want to be there for everyone, emphasized sebastian muller. He had written in his speech, among other things, the health care and care, the creation of attractive housing on the flag written. He spoke of a family center where all social and church associations are brought together under one roof, and he pledged bipartisan cooperation when it comes to the region.

Only two delegates were missing

The fact that the SPD base in both districts took the candidates' campaign very seriously became clear from the remarks made by the chairman of the meeting, oliver jauernig. He announced that out of 86 possible delegates, 84 were present. 62 of them came from kronach, 22 from lichtenfels.
SPD district chairwoman anette kramme (bayreuth) and state parliament member klaus adelt (hof) were also present at the nomination meeting. The latter pointed out that not only the SPD but also the CSU is losing votes. "Since then, those in the state parliament have become friendlier".
The SPD has been able to achieve a number of things in the state parliament, for example by persuading the CSU to improve the finances of municipalities and infrastructures in rural areas.

The bee love drives strange bleedings

So that no wrong impression arises: "we see it very gladly, if bees are held", says the chairman of the beekeepers’ association of munnerstadt and the surrounding area, dieter scholzke. But when he runs into a swarm of bees on his way home from work, he knows something is wrong. "The bees were completely disoriented, normally now no more black bees fly, that is totally unusual", he says. The experienced beekeeper knows the term for such a case. "This was a hunger swarm."

Such a swarm can only occur with improper beekeeping, female dieter scholzke. The bees were obviously not fed. It is becoming more and more common for people to put a hive in their garden, not care about it, and then go on vacation. This is how these hungry bees. "Before they starve, they leave the hive", says dieter schozke. "Then they beg into other colonies and maybe bring the varroa mite with them." Or even the foulbrood, a bee disease. As chairman of the beekeepers’ association with the educational apiary, he couldn’t accept that.

Although training is not mandatory for keeping bees, there are regulations that must be followed, informs the chairman of the bad kissingen district association, erhard bieber. "Beekeeping must generally be reported to the veterinary office", he says. The point here is that the employees of the office need to know where there are beehives in order to be able to inform the keepers, for example, in the event of an outbreak of disease. In addition, beekeepers must obtain a farm number. You can get them from the agricultural office. "Both are free of charge", emphasizes erhard bieber. There are also other regulations. "We are happy to have beekeepers, but the legal aspects must be respected", says dieter scholzke.

But the regulations are only one side of the coin. It is not compulsory, but: "it would be desirable if all beekeepers took a basic course", says dieter scholzke and erhard bieber adds: "there are nine local associations in the district, all of them are happy to provide information." So there are also regular courses for beginners. The two beekeepers ask that new beekeepers simply find out more about the subject. "You don’t have to become a member just because of that."

Dieter scholzke gives an example of why such basic training is so important: the bees had to be treated against the varroa mite in autumn and winter. "If you haven’t attended a training course, you can’t know that", he says. This also includes, for example, that a health certificate must be presented when selling bee colonies.

The referendum and other actions on bees have obviously led to actionism among some people. The "wild beekeeping is also not a phenomenon that exists only in the district of bad kissingen. "At a meeting of the district associations, other chairmen reported similar problems", says erhard bieber.

"Of course, we see it as a positive thing when citizens get involved with bees," says, it says in addition from the landratsamt. "Before one acquires animals, one should concern oneself however fundamentally with the topic." Legal requirements must be observed when keeping animals – for example, the obligation to register with the veterinary office and the office for agriculture. Registration is free of charge. "We recommend that beginners join a beekeepers’ association or a beekeepers’ association. To inform there in detail, because at this place there is professional and financial support." In so-called "honey courses learn as a newcomer everything important about beekeeping. In addition, there are further training courses and the possibility of acquiring licenses at a favorable price, according to the district administration office.
