Expanded Operations - Debut of the New Citizens' Service Center - Expanded workload - Inauguration of fresh workspace commences
Berlin, the vibrant capital city of Germany, is expanding its citizen services, as announced by the governing mayor, Kai Wegner (CDU). A significant part of this expansion includes the opening of a new citizen's office in Marzahn-Hellersdorf, located at Riesaer Straße.
The new office, which will commence regular operation this Friday, comes with enhanced appointment capacities. This expansion is a response to the increasing demand for citizen services, with an average of 7,107 appointments being booked per workday, marking a significant increase from 6,262 in the same period last year.
The new citizen's office in Marzahn-Hellersdorf is not an isolated initiative. It forms part of a larger city-wide effort to improve the appointment situation for Berliners. To facilitate this, the Berlin Senate has created 100 additional positions in citizen's offices, and a recruitment service at the State Administrative Office has been introduced to speed up the filling of vacant positions.
A pool of 20 employees is available to help fill these new positions, and the range of citizen services will be expanded at the new office. This expansion is expected to benefit all Berliners, as the new recruitment measures are aimed at improving the appointment situation city-wide.
The new citizen's office in Marzahn-Hellersdorf operates in new premises with increased capacities. The booking system has also been enhanced, offering additional appointments to cater to the growing demand.
The improvements in the appointment situation are already evident. The 14-day target for appointments is currently achieved at 81.8 percent, up from 58 percent in June last year. This progress demonstrates the success of the Berlin Senate's efforts to improve the appointment situation in citizen's offices.
As Berlin continues to grow and evolve, the expansion of citizen services is a crucial step in maintaining the city's high standard of living. The opening of the new citizen's office in Marzahn-Hellersdorf is a testament to the city's commitment to providing efficient and accessible services to all its residents.
