Reimbursement of expenses for childcare during CRU events

What will be covered? Expenses spent for a babysitter/childminder. For close relatives (e.g. grandparents) travel expenses will be covered.

How to apply? Please fill out two forms: a) 'Antrag auf grundsätzliche Erstattung von Betreuungskosten aus externen Mitteln' – to be filled out once a year and b) 'Stundenweise Betreuung – Abrechnungsformular' – this form can be completed every 2-3 months 'on the run', whenever childcare was necessary due to CRU events. Both forms have to be signed by the Equal Opportunity Representative Birgit Stallmeyer.

The forms can be requested by sending an email to malegermcells@ukmuenster.de.
