!!!Kollektivvertrag

Collective Agreement, agreement governed by the Labour Constitution 
Act, concluded in writing between  interest groups) representing 
management and labour (the latter represented in most cases by the 
Austrian  Federation of Trade Unions - OeGB). Collective agreements 
regulate the mutual rights and duties of employers and employed 
persons originating from the working relationship. Provisions laid 
down in collective agreements cannot be abolished or limited by 
agreements and regulations at company level or employment contracts or 
by  plant agreements; regulations not contained in the collective 
agreements but more favourable to the employed are usually acceptable. 
Collective agreements also hold for those employed who are not members 
of the representative body concluding the agreement ("effect on 
outsiders"). If, however, the employer is not a member of a party to 
the agreement, the collective agreement is not valid for his company. 
Every collective agreement has to be deposited with the Federal 
Ministry for Economy, Labour and Infrastructure, published in the 
gazette of the Wiener Zeitung and displayed in the company.
