Short-Time Work (2009, COVID-19)

From time to time external circumstances force companies to use short time work in order to mitigate the effects. The Austrian government established the general framework for this short time work and therefore provides options to keep employees in their jobs during such periods. By using the HRFORCE-solution „Short-Time Work“ we provide exactly the required tools to create a correct payroll run in a simple and correct way and to create the reporting for the following pay-off regarding the job centres.
