Labor law experts also discovered massive downtime, the press service of the Upper Austrian Chamber of Labor reported in a press release on Sunday. Salaries remained the same during the eight years that Braunauer worked there. Only a part of the pending claims, that is, 4,000 euros, could be guaranteed for the man.

The rest of the time was already prescribed due to expiration dates. The AK called for the short maturity periods of less than three years to be extended and, furthermore, for a 100 percent penalty for unpaid overtime and overtime to be introduced. According to the organization’s estimates, almost one in seven of the 43 million overtime hours worked in Upper Austria in 2019 would remain unpaid.

By the way, the supervisor stated that they had a comprehensive agreement with the worker, according to which all overtime and bonuses were included in the salary. According to the AK, the man did not have a service contract.
