At Bixter.Work, we take care of evaluating your workplace needs and the qualifications of international candidates to figure out the right type of visa they’ll need. Workers from outside the EU can come to Austria with a specific work and residence permit that’s linked to a particular job. Because there are different types of visas, and matching a candidate’s qualifications with Austrian standards can be complicated, not to mention the paperwork for the visa application, hiring an international worker can seem daunting. But don’t worry—Bixter.Work handles everything from start to finish. We make sure the process is precise and smooth, so you can easily benefit from hiring international professionals.

Individuals from countries outside the EU must obtain a visa to be employed in Austria. The duration of visa processing for such applicants in Austria can vary, influenced by factors like the specific circumstances of the applicant and the workload at the Austrian embassy or consulate reviewing the application. Generally, employers can anticipate that their international employee will begin work approximately 2.5 to 3 months after the work contract with the future employee has been signed.

It’s also crucial to understand that non-EU workers are not permitted to commence their employment until they’ve obtained the appropriate work and residence permits for your location.

Therefore, it’s essential for businesses to proactively consider this waiting period in their recruitment strategy. By realistically accounting for the time required for visa processing, companies can ensure the smooth arrival of skilled workers, avoiding any disruptions and adhering to legal requirements.

In Austria, according to the legislation, the standard working hours per week are set at a maximum of 40 hours. The Austrian Working Time Act governs the duration of work time, stipulating that an employee’s regular working time should not exceed 8 hours per day and 40 hours per week. However, with collective agreements or individual agreements under certain conditions, working hours can be extended to a maximum of 12 hours per day and 60 hours per week, provided that the average working time over a reference period (usually 17 weeks) does not exceed 48 hours per week. It’s important for employers and employees to adhere to these regulations and to be aware of any specific provisions that might apply to their particular sector or as agreed upon in their employment contracts.

In order to host Non-EU employees, adequate living conditions need to be provided by employers for a monthly rent. The rent needs to be affordable for the employees, as they will be paying it from their monthly salary.
