We also see it as part of our responsibility to integrate people with a disability into our
workforce. e average annual employment rate of people with a disability was .  at
Deutsche Post  in , well above the national average in the German private sector of
(.  in , source: Bundesagentur für Arbeit (German federal employment agency)).
Promoting equal opportunity and improving family friendliness
Equal opportunity is one of the most important aims of our personnel policy. We
want to increase the share of women in management positions. e voluntary commit-
ment we made in  in the joint declaration with all   companies guides our
eorts in this regard. We have committed ourselves to lling   to   of all manage-
ment positions becoming vacant with women.
In the reporting year, the share of women in management positions in the Group
increased slightly to .  worldwide (previous year: . ), a positive trend we intend
to accelerate. To do this we identied and analysed future priorities in a Group-wide
project. Talent management, communications and gender diversity training will be our
focal points.
In October  we received our h consecutive Total -Quality award. e
association of the same name recognises companies and organisations that promote
the abilities and qualications of women.
We are a family-friendly company. In addition to the many part-time employ-
ment opportunities, we are continuously improving the availability of childcare. We
co- operate with an external service provider who advises our employees in Germany
with regard to selecting optimal childcare and helps nd qualied childcare specialists.
As part of a new company agreement with our social partners, we have made it
easier for sta members to transfer for personal reasons. With these family-friendly
programmes, employees are able to change their place of work for important family or
health reasons more easily and quickly.
