The Committee for Executive Board Affairs handles employer functions with respect to the members of the DFG's Executive Board. These include the conclusion of employment contracts, matters relating to ancillary activities and the determination of rights and obligations under the terms of their employment.

The committee is chaired by a member of the governing body of a DFG member organisation appointed by the General Assembly. Other voting members of the committee are an elected member of the Senate, a representative of the federal government and a representative of a state government. An additional representative of a state government and two members of the Executive Committee who are not members of the Executive Board attend committee meetings in an advisory capacity.
