Audit WorkandFamily
The IPN is awarded permanent certification as a "family and life phase conscious institute"
As an institution the IPN aims to align HR policies with family and life-conscious awareness to create a good framework for reconciling academic performance and family responsibilities.
As early as 2006, the IPN received the work and family audit certificat from berufundfamilie Service GmbH for its family-friendliness.
After several temporary certificates, in 2017 the IPN was the first Leibniz Institute to receive a permanent certificate as a reward for its "family and life-phase-conscious" personnel policy and culture at the institute. This was confirmed in 2020 and is expected to be awarded again in fall 2023.
Why a workandfamily “audit” at the IPN
Besides its intrinsic motivation, the institute's management also aims to achieve an external impact, especially in finding outstanding future scientists to strengthen the IPN.
We have provided further information for IPN employees in our intranet area.
