Source: Lunghammer - TU Graz When people think about working people with disabilities, many people first think of a colleague in a wheelchair or a colleague with a mobility cane for vision impairment. But Andreas Gößler can tell you a thing or two about this: "You know lots of colleagues with a disability but you don't know that you know them." This is because most disabilities are not visible at first glance, such as mental or chronic illnesses like depressive illnesses or diabetes. The counselling services offered by the Representative for People with Disabilities and the Service Point for Accessible Working at the TU Graz are also very individual. Andreas Gößler joined TU Graz in 1991 as a technical drawing apprentice and has now been head of the Purchasing Service for ten years. At the same time, he is an elected representative for people with disabilities at TU Graz and has been for so long that he can no longer say exactly when he first took on this honorary position.
