"Austria has shut-down significant parts of the economy as well as public life since mid-March including schools, universities, shops, services and restaurants. To counter dismissals a rather generous short-time work scheme was introduced that guarantees the employees an income at 80 – 90% of their former net wage. The other measures include special precautions for employees with high risks of serious etiopathology, special care leave and an obligation to use holidays and time credits. "
