Commissioners and Representations

Equal opportunities representation

The Equal Opportunities Representation supports the realisation of equal opportunities for both men and women at the university. The Equal Opportunities Representation consists of the university’s Equal Opportunities Commissioner and her deputy, the equal opportunities commissioners of the eight faculties, the Senate Committee for Equal Opportunities as well as the Koblenz and Landau Women’s Representative (Gender Equality Offices).

Staff associations

The staff associations have the task of assuming responsibility for the interests of university staff in accordance with the Personnel Representation Act of Rhineland-Palatinate. For that purpose, the staff associations have various rights of participation (codetermination, cooperation, consultation, and the right to information). At the University of Koblenz-Landau there are four staff associations in total: the General Staff Association (GPR) as well as the local staff associations (ÖPR) in Koblenz, Landau and Mainz. (Currently only available in German)

Representation for the severely disabled

The representative body responsible for severely disabled staff members promotes the integration of severely disabled people in the university departments, represents their interests and affords them both advice and assistance. The university also has special commissioners who are responsible for the needs of students with disabilities.

Health and safety

The university is required to observe diverse requirements which stem from laws and other statutory provisions in the areas of work and safety as well as accident prevention. In order to fulfil these tasks in the interest of both the employees and the students, commissioners were appointed for individual functions at every location. (Currently only available in German)
