- Title
Flexicurity in Österreich.
- Authors
Hinterseer, Tobias
- Abstract
In recent years Flexicurity has become an essential part of the European Employment Strategy. The combination of a more flexible labor market and stronger social security measures should empower the member states to face impending labor market challenges. This article is focusing on developments in the "flexicurity-security-nexus" on the Austrian labor market. After describing three different relevant law making processes, it will be argued that Flexicurity in Austria is nothing more than traditional bargaining of the Austrian Social Partnership (Sozialpartnerschaft) under a new label. Furthermore it will be argued, that Flexicurity is not likely as a viable way forward for the Austrian labor market.
