Arbitration procedure

The Federal Government Commissioner for Matters Relating to Disabled Persons has an Arbitration Service in accordance with Section 16 of the Ger­man Act on Equal Op­por­tu­ni­ties for Per­sons with Dis­abil­i­ties ("Behindertengleichstellungsgesetz – BGG"). The Arbitration Service is tasked with settling conflicts between persons with disabilities and public authorities of the federal administration. You can ask the Arbitration Service to intervene if you are not satisfied with the answers you have received from the contacts given above. There are no winners or losers in this process; rather those involved try to resolve their conflict together out of court with the aid of the Arbitration Service.

The arbitration procedure is free of charge, and there is no need to call upon legal counsel. You can find all the information about such arbitration procedures on the website of the Arbitration Service. This website will also give you information about how an arbitration procedure works and how you apply for an arbitration procedure.

You can reach the arbitration board at the following address:
