!!!Arbeitszeit

Working Hours, the weekly working hours of an employee are generally 
limited to 40 hours by the Austrian Arbeitszeitsgesetz (Law on Working 
Hours). By means of a  Collective Agreement, it is possible to adopt 
working-hour regulations which are more favourable for employees. To a 
limited extent, working overtime is provided for, but a premium is to 
be paid for these hours. Time compensation can also be agreed upon, as 
can flexible working hours. Special regulations apply to some 
professional groups (hospital doctors, etc.). There are no legal 
regulations of working hours for the self-employed.
