Description (en)
The focus of this research is on socio‐economic, institutional and legal ramifications of Austrian trade unions and their policy towards migrant workers. We analyse the changing role of migrants in the Austrian labour market and the implications for union policy. With the rapid decline of trade union membership in private industries as a result of economic restructuring, trade unions in Austria are slow to realise that a change in trade union policy may be called for, in analogy to unions in the United States of America which increasingly focus on the services industries and their workforce, namely women and migrants.
