Staff Councils
The two staff councils of the Folkwang University of the Arts (one for artistic and academic staff, the other for technical and administrative staff) represent the employees vis-à-vis the department on the basis of the State Staff Representation Act of North Rhine-Westphalia.
The staff councils work together with the department and assume important tasks with regard to the position of all staff and employees of Folkwang University of the Arts. The staff councils have formal participation rights. The strongest form of participation is co-determination (e.g. recruitment, classification and regrouping, transfer). Other forms are participation and consultation.
Above all, however, we are the point of contact for employees in the event of problems in the workplace. If you have any questions about the work of the staff councils or need help, simply contact us.
