Welcome to the Human Resources & Legal department!

General notes
The Human Resources Department is responsible for the fulfillment of all personnel tasks of the university. It supports the personnel managers and has a service function for the employees. It is also responsible for strategic tasks (e.g. support of strategic personnel planning).
The Human Resources Department sees itself as a service provider and considers its main tasks to be optimal personnel support through competent and service-oriented dealings with employees.
The service tasks include in particular:
- Carrying out the monthly payroll accounting
- Recruitment (support/consulting, job advertisements, preparation of employment contracts, etc.)
- Personnel development (e.g. continuing education program)
- Vocational training
- Trustful cooperation with the works council
The Human Resources Department handles all personnel matters for the university. For all questions concerning the employment relationship and for many other questions, the team of the Human Resources Department is your contact.
The tasks are distributed within the department according to subject areas, i.e. each personnel officer is responsible for the faculties or departments assigned to him or her. This means that employees have a fixed contact person for personnel issues that arise.
The Legal Department handles all legal matters of the university, especially in the areas of labor and social law, research funding, and claims management.
