Part-time employment is possible.
Each post is equally open to persons of any gender. Women will be given preferential consideration in areas where they are underrepresented, if they demonstrate the same eligibility, qualifications and
professional performance, unless reasons relating to the person of a co-applicant prevail. The application of disabled persons is encouraged. Severely disabled persons and persons of equal status will be
given preferential consideration if they are equally qualified. Only a minimum level of physical aptitude is required for them. Individual disability-specific limitations will only prevent preferential
consideration in the case of absolutely necessary ability patterns for the post to be filled.
