Our central tasks are to protect and promote the economic, social, health and cultural interests of all academic university staff at the Montanuniversität. We provide information and ensure transparency in university events. Our goal is to bring about a balance of interests with the university management for the benefit of the employees. We monitor compliance with all legal regulations and act independently, on a voluntary basis, free of charge and in strict confidence.

In all matters that affect your interests, we have the right to intervene with the university management and, if necessary, with the relevant bodies outside the university. The university management must provide us with information on all matters that concern academic staff. We offer you assistance and personal advice. We constantly strive to improve working conditions, resolve conflict situations and promote an optimal working atmosphere.

We are happy to answer your questions and concerns.
