University & Family

The University of Applied Sciences Wiener Neustadt (FHWN) is committed to balancing family and career and, therefore, took part in the university and family audit initiated by the Federal Ministry for Families and Youth. Balancing family and career presents a challenge not only for employees but also for managers.

FHWN would like to constantly implement further sustainable measures in the field of work-family balance, family friendliness and the compatibility of career and private life. The measures focus on improving the overall conditions for employees and students with dependents.

Why is the FHWN concerned with family friendliness?

Addressing the issue of family friendliness has enabled FHWN to position itself as a modern employer, thereby contributing to Wiener Neustadt’s image as an attractive university location. With an increasingly culturally diverse workforce and the flexibility of working hours and locations, we are equipped to handle the major challenges of globalisation, such as demographic changes and a resulting shortage of skilled workers.
