Corona short-time work new


For companies that are directly affected by the lockdown, the following applies:

New is the possibility of falling below the 30% or 10% work performance, which applies to companies that are directly affected by the current lockdown (ie official closure). The ÖGB checks the applications and gives a response to the AMS within 72 hours, followed by a general approval from the WKO. In addition, requests for retrospective reduction of workload below 30% are possible for all companies. But there is even more, because in the whole of November 2020 or for the entire upcoming duration of the lockdown, even 0% work performance is possible. As a result, falling below the actually applicable 30% or 10% work performance is legally permissible.

Attention! For companies that are directly affected by the lockdown or companies that apply for Corona short-time work only for the month of November 2020, a confirmation from the tax advisor is not required. The retrospective application is still possible up to and including Friday, November 20, 2020.

  • A kind of "tip regulation" has been resolved: Companies that are directly affected by the lockdown and whose employees are covered by the regulation of the flat rate tip pay their employees in short-time work for November 2020 or for the time of the lockdown the sum of EUR 100, respectively. - net per month, which the company is then promptly remunerated by the AMS.
