Childcare allowance for employees
The subsidy supports the compatibility of work and family life if additional care is required for work-related reasons. Employees with children or relatives in need of care can apply for a subsidy towards childcare costs.
Employees in science (except W2 and W3 professorships), in technology and administration as well as SHKs and WHBs can use the childcare allowance. Scholarship holders of the University of Siegen can also make use of the childcare allowance if this is compatible with the regulations of the scholarship program.
The entire application process takes place via the Family Service Office. Certain criteria must be observed when claiming the childcare cost subsidy.
The subsidy is limited. It is also paid retroactively after care has been provided, provided that the application to be submitted in advance has been approved. The completed care certificate must be submitted as proof that care has been provided.
You will find all the necessary information in the information and implementation regulations for the care costs subsidy.
You will also need the application form and the care certificate.
