Support for your work

For Staff Members

  • The Inklusionsbeauftragte(n) are the university‘s official representatives addressing the questions, issues and needs of persons with health impairments and disabilities working at the university.
  • Persons with health impairments or disabilities working at the university may also approach the Schwerbehindertenvertretung ("Representative [Body] for Severely Disabled Employees"). This is the elected body representing the interests of this group from an employee‘s perspective. Likewise, the Personalrat (Staff Committee) will attend to your concerns.

New members welcome on the team: With and without disabilities

Applicants, New Employees and Recently Appointed Professors -- and Disability

Goethe University is looking forward to seeing its teams enhanced by new members with and without disabilities. For future employees/applicants, members of selection/appointment committees, heads of teams or departments, including professors, our handouts provide useful information and guidance on the topic: “New team members at Goethe University and disability-related issues”.

Inclusion is a Process...

This page and its English version is still under construction and growing steadily. If you have any additions or suggestions, please let us know.
