Two weeks without wages: Upper Austrians fight for 15,000 euros!

Wels, Österreich - An Upper Austrian is faced with an unexpected waiting period for his money after the end of his employment. He was entitled to just under 15,000 euros, but 14 days after his termination, the amount was not yet in his account. According to a report by 5min.at

The employee therefore looked for support from the Chamber of Labor (AK) Wels. This found that the outstanding 15,000 euros also included the accumulated vacation days. Thanks to the help of the AK, the person concerned finally received the almost 15,000 euros he was entitled with. However, such incidents raise questions about the right to seek workers and illustrate the need for comprehensive information.

rights of employees

Often unclear regulations and misunderstandings unsettle many employees. According to the Chamber of Labor, there are a number of frequent errors in labor law that can lead to uncertainties. For example, it is the case that the first three days are not necessary for the first three days, unless the employer demands this. Vacation must also be agreed between the employee and the employer, a one -sided decision by the employer is not permitted. This emphasizes the importance of finding out about his rights in order to avoid unpleasant surprises.

In addition, overtime is only required if contractually obliged. A rejection is always possible for important personal reasons. It should also be noted that a warning is not always necessary to be released; This only applies in exceptional cases. The AK emphasizes that unfair clauses apply in the employment contract, but are not allowed to violate the law.

notice periods and resolution options

Another important topic are notice periods. These usually depend on the duration of the service. In the event of termination by the employer, the following deadlines apply:

With an amicable termination of the employment relationship, there are no fixed notice periods; The employment relationship ends at the agreed time. Employers and employees should contact the works council in order to avoid rushed decisions.

For employees who terminate themselves, there is a notice period of one month regardless of the duration of the employment relationship. Longer deadlines are possible as long as they do not fall below the employer. Termination dates are usually possible for the last month of the month or an agreed date.

This information is essential for employees to know and understand their rights, and they illustrate the important role of the Chamber of Labor in such negotiations and information issues.

Together it is made clear that compliance with the legal framework is crucial for both sides.
