A family is where people take care of each other and take on social responsibility.
BAM’s family concept
Verified and certified: BAM's family- and life-phase friendly personnel policy
Work-life balance is an important issue when it comes to attracting the best minds in research and further supporting the existing staff. In November 2015, BAM received a certificate for the "Work and family" audit – a procedure of systematic recording, reflection and further development of a family and life-phase aware personnel policy. Flexible working hours, part-time work and teleworking are those elements that make work-related activities family and life-phase responsive.

Our working hours models
BAM offers its employees different working hours models to flexibly balance professional tasks with personal life situations.
Flexible working hours
The weekly working hours can be flexible, anywhere between 06:00 to 20:00. This is also valid for part-time employees.
Part-time
The number of the weekly working hours can be individually agreed. If there are no official objections, certain days of the week can be specified as the agreed working time.
Teleworking
For family or health reasons, employees have the option of teleworking if working conditions allow it.
-
Parent-child office
All BAM employees can use the parent-child offices at the BAM headquarter and BAM branch Adlershof for self-organised care of their children for a maximum of two consecutive working days. The offices are equipped with a PC workstation and child-friendly furniture.
-
Return after a family break
Many of our employees use the offer to interrupt their professional activities for a period of time to devote themselves entirely to their children and family. We then support their move back into work according to their individual needs. Our staff have the opportunity to refresh their knowledge during their leave by means of further training measures and/or to take up part-time work for up to 30 hours a week. If you are interested, information about new developments in BAM can be provided or an electronic access to internal networks established.
