FAMILY friendly KU

Compatibility of FAMILY and career

The ZFG conducts research projects on the topic of the "Compatibility of Work and Family". For example, on behalf of the

German Bishops' Conference the family-friendly measures in the German (arch)bishoprics were examined. Hence the satisfaction of employees with these measures, satisfaction with the employer and commitment (loyalty to the employer) were also surveyed.

The family education studies that the ZFG has conducted for various municipalities also play a role in this field of research.

FAMILY friendly KU

The KU considers family friendliness as an important part of its mission statement and has been working intensively for more than 20 years to make family and university compatible as a place to study and work. In 2004, it was the first Bavarian university to receive the award "Family-Friendly University". After many years of successful completion of the audit "Familiengerechte Hochschule", KU joined the Best Practice Club "Familie in der Hochschule e. V." in 2016. It supports its students and its employees to lead a good life in and with families in all phases of life and qualification.
