The Mönchengladbach police headquarters is a district police authority with around 800 employees, including around 640 officers.

A flexible and family-oriented personnel policy enables employees to achieve a good work-life balance. Extensive offers such as individual and flexible working hours, teleworking positions and diverse health management contribute to this. Thanks to the good infrastructure with two main railway stations and four adjacent or intersecting federal highways, Mönchengladbach can be reached from the conurbations of Düsseldorf, Cologne and the Ruhr region within a very short time.
