Labour Leasing

The statistics on labour leasing provide information on temporary or agency work in Austria. Key figures include the number of leased employees and assignments as well as the duration of assignments in days.

An assignment is a supply arrangement between a company with a business license for the leasing of labour and the employing company. Absences (sickness, vacation, compensatory time etc.) or contractual changes (change of collective agreement, change in the working hours etc.) do not lead to the end of the assignment.

The survey is conducted according to the Labour Leasing Act (Section 13 (4), Federal Law Gazette No. 196/1988 as amended). Companies and institutions that hold a business license for the leasing of labour submit data about the assignments on a yearly basis.

Information is provided by companies and institutions on all assignments in the reporting period from July 1st of the previous year to June 30th of the current year.

The survey "Labour Leasing" is not offered in English.
