Wien, Österreich - The future of educational leave is in acute danger! The conversations about a possible blue-black coalition provide massive uncertainty among the employees. In particular, employees who had planned a break for training for 2025 or who have already concluded contracts with their employers are currently experiencing a roller coaster ride. The demand from the Chamber of Labor (AK) has increased significantly due to the uncertain situation. "We have recorded an increase of 25 percent with the inquiries," reports Silvia Hofbauer, the head of the Department of Labor Market and Integration of the AK Vienna, and adds that people are unsettled about the future of their educational plans, as well as krone.at reports.

Caution in educational agreements!

In view of the turbulent location, Hofbauer passes on clear advice to employees: "If you agree with your employer, you should insert an educational leave." This regulation ensures that the parental leave only comes into force, even if educational allowance actually flows, which enables resignation in the event of abolition. Another warning concerns the signing of binding contracts with educational providers. "We strongly advise you to make advance payments or make binding agreements," warns Hofbauer, and calls the situation a real nightmare for many employees, as well as

For those who are already in educational leave, there is an all -clear: the AK assumes that active contracts are not affected if the educational leave is actually abolished. "That would be unconstitutional," explains Hofbauer, "and in extreme cases we would legally support people". The public sector invested around 640 million euros in the educational leave in the previous year and is also planning with similar sums for the coming years, which underlines the importance of the measure. However, these uncertainties represent a serious cut in the educational plans of many, which hope in vain for clarity.
