The General Act on Equal Treatment (AGG) Complaints Office at HAW Hamburg is a formal unit responsible for accepting complaints regarding discrimination, harassment and violence. The basis of its work is the General Act on Equal Treatment (Allgemeine Gleichbehandlungsgesetz, AGG). It accepts complaints regarding discrimination based on one or more protected characteristics as outlined in the AGG, reviews these complaints, and communicates recommendations for measures or sanctions to the appropriate organisational unit when an incident is considered to represent discrimination pursuant to the AGG.
