Forum echo – Unemployment: “Work is punished!”

Date:

According to AMS data, there are almost 10% (32,752 people) more unemployed people this year than in the same period last year. We have summarized for you here what the reasons for this could be and what the readers of “Krone” think about it.

While Labor Minister Kocher (ÖVP) hopes for a recovery of the economy and is “cautiously” optimistic, the reader community sees the situation more nuanced. The “winter break”, which is still common in some sectors, is sometimes brought into play, as in the commentary of Real Vienna. Other readers also point out the “massive recession” currently happening, such as chamomile tea.


Lack of action

For many readers, the reason for the high unemployment rates is quite simple. The government lacks appropriate measures to increase the incentive to return to work. “Prevent the emigration of skilled workers by doing something about payroll taxes!” says something like that MaxManus. “For at least 25 years I have been hearing from all politicians, from all parties: performance must be worthwhile!” he says CharlesDarwin. Readers would therefore like to see more initiative from politicians and new ideas and concepts.

Working more is punished
Many also report ‘anti-worker conditions’. “I was now paid again for overtime from a business trip, and then the deductions went off,” says smiley18, who, in the worst case, even thinks about emigrating. That is also true my solution to: “Unfortunately, the hardworking people are increasingly the stupid ones here.”

Not in the mood for work-life balance?
A number of readers also see the reason as the “it doesn’t matter” mentality, which they believe is widespread in today’s society. “Many people simply don’t feel like going to work,” says North German Sanzona. MrCovidthe19th On the other hand, he sees a social change: “The fact that you have been working as a worker for years must finally stop,” is his opinion.


What do you think about the topic of unemployment and what do you think about the arguments of other readers? How would you try to control the problem? We are curious to hear more opinions and look forward to your comments!
