Equal Opportunities
Our institute's members come from 24 different nationalities. 55% are female and 45% are male.
We offer various measures to guarantee that female and male employees receive equal opportunities towards career development and to achieve a manageable work and family life balance.
Some measures are offered via the Max Planck Society while others, like career development training are also organized locally via the Institute.
The Max Planck Society recently published published a brochure called Career in Science at Max Planck : a guide to career advancement with equal opportunities [pdf.]
The Max Planck Society is committed to protecting its employees against all forms of discrimination. A Code of Conduct defines the Max Planck Society’s policy of handling sexualized discrimination, harassment and violence. [pdf]
