It is important to us to maintain a constructive relationship with the committees that represent our employees' interests. Many company agreements document our close cooperation with employee representatives. Commerzbank engages in regular and constructive dialogue conducted in a spirit of partnership with employee representatives on all topics where employee codetermination is relevant.
At Commerzbank, the committees representing the interests of our employees are the general works council, the general youth and trainee representative council (GJAV), over 20 local works councils, the works council at the head office and the senior managers' committee.
Our representatives for employees with severe disabilities work to ensure that employees with disabilities and employees without disabilities have equal rights at Commerzbank. Besides practical help and technical modifications at workstations, they focus on making our employees more aware of dealing with illness and disability on a day-to-day basis.
