Schwerbehindertenvertretung
The Representative Council for Severely Disabled Persons is responsible for all matters concerning university employees who are at risk of becoming disabled, disabled or severely disabled. The tasks of the Severely Disabled Representation have expanded according to the Social Code IX (SGB). Accordingly, the representation actively shapes the integration agreement (SGB IX § 83), which has existed at the Bauhaus Universität Weimar since 2002.
Furthermore, the representation of severely disabled persons is a member of the integration team of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar and works together with the staff council and the employer on prevention and integration management (SGB IX, § 84). Thus, it is possible for all employees to make use of the representation of severely disabled persons, e.g. in cases of prolonged illness, integration into working life, reorganisation of the workplace, rehabilitation options, applications for a severely disabled person's card or applications for partial pensions.
