IKZ as a family-friendly employer

Certificate award for the audit berufundfamilie

On 25 June 2019 the IKZ was awarded the certificate for the audit berufundfamilie for further 3 years. With the certificate the IKZ is honoured for its commitment in the area of the strategically aligned family and life-phase conscious personnel policy.

The prerequisite for the certification was the successful completion of the auditing process offered by berufundfamilie Service GmbH. The IKZ has set itself the goal of creating family-friendly working conditions. Over a period of three years, the Institute will actively pursue the family and life-phase conscious measures agreed in the target agreement.

The renewed certification shows that the IKZ is continuously working on a family-friendly personnel policy. The Institute aims to improve the framework conditions for its employees and to provide them with instruments by which family/private life and career can be better reconciled. This includes, for example, flexible options for organising working time, whether it be daily working time or (temporary) part-time employment. A parent-child room is available to employees to bridge short-term bottlenecks.
