Austria - Union agrees on minimum wage during tourism summit - February 28, 2017

The social partners in the tourism branch came during a tourism summit, initiated by trade union vida, with a joint recommendation to bring the monthly minimum wage in tourism to a level of 1500 euro (starting 1 May 2018). Trade union vida welcomed this important step forward. The union also wants more attention to be paid to the reconciliation of working and family live. Social partners will continue talks about possibilities to improve the mobility and the situation of seasonal workers.
