Despite lockdown: Austrian office wants to force the unemployed rigorously into après-ski establishments

There will be no après-ski this winter, according to the clear motto of the Austrian federal government. It is therefore surprising that the Public Employment Service is able to find appropriate jobs.


There will be no après-ski this winter, according to the clear motto of the Austrian federal government.

It is therefore surprising that the Public Employment Service is able to find appropriate jobs.

  • Austria is in corona lockdown until December 6th.

  • It is already clear that winter will be hard.

    There will definitely be no après-ski.

  • Nevertheless, an Austrian job authority arranges for relevant companies.

Vienna -

Austria

is still badly affected by the

corona pandemic

.

The EU country is still in

lockdown

until December 6th

.

There can therefore be no talk of a normal winter, on which tourism in the Alpine republic is dependent.

"Ski fun, yes, but without après-ski" was the clear motto of Federal Chancellor

Sebastian Kurz

(ÖVP)

in September

.

Corona in Austria: Aprés Ski excluded "Will continue to have to live with massive restrictions"

Two months and a hard lockdown later, even normal skiing is in danger.

It is completely unclear whether tourists are allowed to enter the country at all.

Even a Europe-wide closure of the ski resorts is in the room.

The black-green federal government is currently resisting this proposal from the EU and apparently wants to decide on the situation itself by Christmas.

According to Kurz, however, it seems certain that the residents of the country with nine million inhabitants “will have to

 live

with further

massive restrictions

even after December 7th 

.”

Austria

is facing a winter that has not been there for a long time.

Some don't seem to want to admit that.

Corona in Austria: Despite a consistent ban - vacancies for après-ski businesses

Job offers from ski companies who are looking for support for the upcoming winter are currently causing a stir.

Despite the categorical ban, it is also about

aprés ski

.

The jobs are mediated by the Austrian company

Arbeitsmarktservice

,

AMS for

short

.

If you enter the term “

Aprés Ski

in the search bar

, you will find a total of 46 vacancies.

From kitchen to bar staff, from souchefs to cleaning staff.

Possible employers include established après-ski giants from winter sports resorts such as

Schladming

,

Sankt Anton am Arlberg

or

Salzburg

and

Styria

.

An après-ski bar from Sankt Anton is recruiting for reinforcements.

We are looking for a barman or barmaid from the beginning of December to April 20, 2021.

The blackening of the company name comes from us.

Corona in Austria: Because of aprés ski from Vienna to Tyrol?

AMS is under criticism

The jobs in question are apparently given to job seekers without hesitation.

A Viennese announced on Twitter that the

AMS

would send requests for applications.

These are "mandatory application documents for après-ski

bars

in Tyrol." As the man describes to the

zackzack.at

portal

, the applications are mandatory.

Failure to apply could result in unemployment benefit being suspended for up to eight weeks.

Overall, it is possible to reject it, but difficult.

Only if the person is at risk or other requirements cannot be met does the position not have to be started.

Applying for this is complicated - especially for non-native speakers.

My wife (in her mid-50s, Vienna) receives mandatory application documents from #AMS for après-ski bars in #Tirol.


I think that's kind of ... I'd better not say anything.

Corona in Austria: "What is clear: Après-ski will be back in a year at the earliest"

What does the AMS say about the vacancies?

When asked about the placement of après-ski jobs on Twitter, board member Johannes Kopf simply stated that the respective companies are “already looking for staff with a view to opening up a potential opening” and added: “Whether the company will open at all or under what conditions, determined by the Minister of Health. ”But that was decided a long time ago.

There will be no

après ski

this winter

.

Definitely!

"What is clear: après-ski will be back in a year at the earliest," said Chancellor

Kurz

on November 29th.

Companies are already looking for staff with a view to opening up.

Health Minister determines whether the company will open at all and under what conditions.

If the person at risk, the duty of care or the company does not meet the requirements, the position does not have to be started.

Corona in Austria: fuss about job offers for après-ski companies

In the case of Viennese job seekers, in addition to their apparently very own perspective on

après-ski operations,

another open question

remains

: Why should a woman from

Vienna work

in the current situation in

Tyrol

, i.e. at the other end of the country?

From the side of the

AMS

it says diplomatically: "Supraregional placement is a

goal given to

the

AMS to

improve the much higher unemployment in Eastern Austria compared to the many vacancies in the West."

Overall, it ultimately seems more than strange that jobs for

après-ski bars are being found

this winter

- even if not everyone seems aware of this despite a clear statement by the federal government.
