Finanzpolizei kontrollierte im Vorjahr 1.327 Auslandsbetriebe

The Austrian Financial Police conducted inspections of 1,327 foreign businesses in 2025, focusing on wage and social dumping. They examined 3,691 dispatched or outsourced workers and identified 274 cases of suspected underpayment, leading to approximately €5.37 million in fines. The report also outlined the 2026 inspection plan, which will prioritize sectors like construction, tourism, event management, and hospitality due to their higher risk of labor and social dumping. The number of suspicion cases remained stable, but the amount of fines increased, with 433 criminal complaints filed for failure to provide wage documents.
