Staff Council (Hochschulbereich)

We – the Staff Council (“Hochschulbereich”) - are the local staff representatives of all employees at Leipzig University (excluding the Faculty of Medicine). We represent your interests towards university management and are happy to support and advise you on your individual concerns.

Currently, the Staff Council (“Hochschulbereich”) comprises 20 elected employees. Motions from the university management are decided by a majority vote.

As a rule, we have a statutory period of 10 working days to express our opinion, which results in our fortnightly meeting schedule on Wednesdays in the odd-numbered calendar weeks. We have an average of 40 applications and enquiries to discuss and decide on per meeting day.

Consultation hours

Transparency notice on handling e-mail enquiries

The email address prhsb@uni-leipzig.de is a so-called functional mailbox to which all 21 elected members of the University Staff Council and our secretarial staff have full read access.

Depending on the content of your message, your enquiry will be forwarded specifically to one or more members of the Staff Council responsible in order to enable it to be processed as quickly as possible.

Important: At no time will your enquiry/message leave the University Staff Council. All members of the Staff Council are bound by confidentiality and may not pass on your message to third parties outside the Staff Council without your express consent.

 

By sending an e-mail to prhsb@uni-leipzig.de, you agree to this procedure.

 

Alternatively, you can also contact individual members of the Staff Council directly. You can find an overview of the committees' main topics here: Committees and working groups. You can find the contact details of all members here: Member overview.
