Note on gender-neutral wording
Language not only reflects social conditions, but also shapes our perception. At the Austrian Energy Agency, we actively contribute to the equality of all genders and to an appreciative approach to everyone through the conscious use of our language. In its publications and media appearances, the Austrian Energy Agency strives to use language that expresses gender equality (non-discriminatory, gender-equitable and inclusive language).
Gender colon
The common formal means of representing gender diversity are the gender gap (Mitarbeiter_innen), the gender asterisk (Mitarbeiter*innen) and the gender colon (Mitarbeiter:innen). They go beyond the binary male/female designations that have also been used in the course of the development of gender-appropriate speaking and writing through the use of the capital Binnen-I (MitarbeiterInnen) or the use of the masculine and feminine forms (der Mitarbeiter/die Mitarbeiterin).
In order to make the reality of gender diversity linguistically visible, the Austrian Energy Agency has decided to use the gender colon.
In contrast to the internal I, the gender colon does not protrude beyond the typeface and is therefore hardly detrimental to the reading flow. Unlike the gender asterisk, it also works with most screen readers. The Austrian Energy Agency uses the gender colon in line with the Federal Ministry for Climate Action, Environment, Energy, Mobility, Innovation and Technology (BMK).
We are aware that language is a living thing and continues to evolve. Therefore, there may also be further adaptations in the area of non-discriminatory language (such as other special characters) in the future.
If gender-neutral language is not used in a text, this is not intentional. Please help and inform us in this case. In any case, all personal formulations refer to all genders.
