The Chemisches und Veterinäruntersuchungsamt Rhein-Ruhr-Wupper (CVUA-RRW) is a public law institution that specializes in the safety and quality of food as well as the protection of animal health. Founded in 2009, the CVUA-RRW is responsible for about three million residents in the regions of Düsseldorf, Duisburg, Essen, Krefeld, and others.
The main mission of the CVUA-RRW is to ensure health consumer protection and deception protection in food. This includes the examination of food samples for health hazards such as microbiological or chemical risks, as well as checking for deceptions through unexpected compositions or labeling. Another focus is on veterinary diagnostics for the detection and prevention of animal diseases and zoonoses.
Although specific sustainability goals are not explicitly mentioned, the CVUA-RRW contributes to the safety of the food supply and the protection of animal health through its work, which ultimately benefits the environment and society. Additionally, the integration of laboratories from various regions promotes efficient resource use.
The CVUA-RRW offers diverse career opportunities and promotes the compatibility of family and work. Applications from people with disabilities are explicitly welcomed, and part-time employment is generally possible.
