Family-friendly work environment
Parent-child rooms & mobile KidsBox
When regular daycare options are unavailable, we are committed to ensuring that parents can bring their children to work in a kid-friendly environment. To support this we have established parent-child rooms at both universities. These rooms are thoughtfully equipped with desks, internet access, couches, toys, and games. Additionally, they are specifically designed to accommodate nursing and breastfeeding needs, ensuring both comfort and privacy
As an alternative, parents can choose to use the mobile KidsBox within their own office. This portable cabinet entails essential childcare items including a mat, toys, a desk, and a child’s travel crib, offering a convenient solution for short-term childcare needs
Please contact the coordinator for equal opportunities (equality[at]ceplas.de) if you would like to use the rooms or borrow the KidsBox.
Family-friendly meetings and events
To promote family friendliness in our day-to-day operations and raise awareness among our members, we've created guidelines for inclusive team meetings and scientific events. These guidelines (on the right) accommodate family needs by scheduling around school holidays and daycare hours, or by providing onsite childcare
