The situation in Austria

Recruiting today. What has changed.

Three points that come up in every intro call.

01
Demographics

The Austrian labour market is shrinking.

The baby boomers are retiring, the younger cohorts are smaller. Companies that used to sort through applications now have to approach talent actively. Recruiting is changing fundamentally, from administering applications to winning people.

02
EU AI Act

Recruiting is high-risk under Annex III.

AI in recruiting is no longer a legal grey zone. The EU AI Act sets clear requirements for competence, documentation and human oversight. We help you implement these requirements in a way that is safe and practical.

03
Austrian specifics

Collective agreements, licensing, pay transparency.

Recruiting in Austria follows its own rules. Hundreds of collective agreements, the licensing requirement under the AMFG, and new pay transparency rules often make standard DACH solutions unfit for purpose.
