Austria offers access to the European market, a stable economy, and a highly skilled workforce. Yet, local compliance and labor regulations can be difficult to manage without the right expertise.
In Austria, professional recruitment agency fees range from 22-27% of the first-year annual base salary of a recruited employee. Recruitment agencies also require an upfront retainer and payment in advance installments of the agency fee based on milestones such as start of recruitment, presentation of candidates, and scheduling interviews with a candidate shortlist.

The notice period in Austria varies based on the length of employment. It goes as follows:
When employment ends by mutual consent, no notice period is required, however, termination in writing is recommended.
For resignations, the notice period is one month. However, if there is good cause for resignation, based on the employer’s breach of the contract, the notice period doesn’t have to be observed.
