Gmundner worked 1,123 overtime, but was never paid. Now the Chamber of Labor intervened.
It took two years and eight months to finally reach Gmundner. The man had racked up a whopping 1,123 unpaid overtime hours during this time.
The employee had repeatedly reported outstanding payments to his employer, but without success.
The man worked for a local construction services company throughout Austria for renovation work.
Your employer often did not grant you daily rest, weekend rest, or substitute rest. Among other things, he had to work as a lifeguard in a lido, despite the lack of agreement.
With the right to more than 57,000 euros
24-hour on-call service, as well as work on weekends and holidays, were also not uncommon. And so the huge overtime quickly came together.
Although he repeatedly urged their payment, there were no transfers. Ultimately, he resigned due to withholding of payment and turned to legal experts at the Gmunden Chamber of Labor.
In addition to compensation for unpaid overtime, legal advisers made other claims. The complaints were the lack of monthly payment, a Christmas bonus rate and the severance pay: a total of more than 57,000 euros!
In comparison, agreed at 20,000 euros
However, due to the expiration periods, the injured party only received a fraction of his claim. The Gmundner and the company reached an agreement. The company finally paid 20,000 euros (gross).
AKOÖ President Johann Kalliauer said: “If payments are missed, please contact our lawyers immediately. Otherwise, you could die for your earned wages. “
