The beginning is always difficult. This is also true for the start of life in a new country, a newcommunity. It presents those affected with considerable challenges.

The Province of Upper Austria has made it a goal to help people master their everyday livesby facilitating many procedures. That is why people are glad to live in Upper Austria. Thatincludes the more than 183,000 persons with immigration backgrounds, which means thateither they themselves or their parents or forefathers have come to us from over 150 coun-tries to make Upper Austria their primary place of residence.

Upper Austria also attracts people because of its geographical location and the prevailing fa-vorable economic situation here. In order to facilitate the beginning of life in Upper Austriafor newcomers from other countries and to thereby make it easier for them to integrate them-selves into our community, the Integration Office of the Upper Austrian Provincial Govern-ment has developed this folder with welcoming information.

This welcoming folder contains information about Austria and the prerequisites for stayinghere temporarily as well as those for settling here permanently. It also contains things youshould know about diverse facets of everyday life: establishing a residence, living togetherharmoniously with others, education, work and the economy, family, health and environ-mental protection.

With this folder we cordially greet the newcomers and hope that it will help them tosuccessfully begin their lives in Austria. We wish all Neo-Austrians the best for a harmo-nious life with the other people in Upper Austria!

Welcome to Austria – Staying in Austria and taking up residence here

2 Staying in Austria and takingup residence here

People who want to spend a longer period of time in Austria for a special purpose or to perma-nently take up residence here are confronted by a number of problems. The following informa-tion is intended to give them an overview of the various things that they will have to deal with.Legal information that is relevant for their particular cases can only be obtained from the autho-rities responsible for problems of residency: in Upper Austria those are the district commissioners(Bezirkshauptfrauen and -männer) and in the cities Linz, Wels and Steyr the respective muni-cipal authorities (Magistrate).Counseling institutions for immigrants offer them general legal aid, support and orientation.You will find the addresses of various institutions in the address section of this chapter. Whatrules are valid for you depends on your citizenship:

A. Citizens of the European Union/European Economic Areaand Switzerland

As a citizen of the European Union, the European Economic Area or Switzerland you areentitled to set up residency in Austria under certain conditions. However you must apply to theresponsible authorities for a confirmation of registration within four months after you have en-tered Austria. The same is true for the members of your family insofar as they are also citizensof the EU, the EEA or Switzerland. Family members who are not citizens of the EU, the EEA orSwitzerland must apply for a residence permit, which is issued for five years. You can finddetailed information about this on the web page of the Federal Ministry of the Interior or obtain itfrom the responsible authorities (see address section).

B. Citizens of third countries

Citizens of third states (that means persons who are not eligible for asylum and are not citizensof the EU/EEA or of Switzerland) must have a residence permit. A residence permit entitles aperson to remain in Austria for a specific purpose. All of the recognized purposes are listed onthe web page of the Federal Ministry of the Interior (see address section).The first application for a residence permit must be made abroad, but there are certain excep-tions. You can obtain more detailed information from the responsible authorities or on the web-site of the Federal Ministry of the Interior (see address section).

A person who wants to remain in Austria temporarily, but for a period of longer than six months,must have a limited leave to remain.

As far as EU-/EEA citizens and citizens of Switzerland are concerned the immigration of familymembers is basically confined to their marital registered partners, children and grandchildren upto the age of 21, and their parents/grandparents and children over 21 if financial support is pro-vided for them.

Please consider, that you must be able to provide evidence that you have a basic knowledge ofthe German language when you make your first application – normally that means before youenter Austria. The confirmation of your linguistic knowledge (language diploma or course certifi-cate) must not be more than one year old.

Welcome to Austria – Staying in Austria and taking up residence here

Make sure, that the application for extension of the residence permit is submitted to the re-sponsible authorities on time, which means in any case before the expiration of the current re-sidence permit (at the earliest three months before it expires). It must be completely filled out.

Citizens of third countries who want to take up residence in Austria need a residence permit.Which one is appropriate, depends on the reason for their residence:

• “Red-white-red-card” (temporary residence with restricted access to the job market)• “Red-white-red-card plus” (temporary residence with unrestricted access to the job market)• “Blue Card EU” (temporary residence with restricted access to the job market)• “Residence Permit” (temporary residence with restricted access to the job market)• “Residence Permit without gainful employment” (temporary residence with no access to the jobmarket)

• “Residence Permit for Dependants” (temporary residence with no access to the job market)• “Family member” (temporary residence with unrestricted access to the job market)

Certain reasons for remaining in Austria are subjected to a point system (red-white-red card).That means that criteria such as qualifications, professional experience, linguistic knowledge andage are examined and evaluated with points. A minimal number of points must be attained for apermit to be granted. That number depends on the kind of employment that is desired.

A person who has legally resided in Austria for five years continuously and has completed mo-dule 2 of the integration agreement (that means knowledge of German at the B1 level of theCommon European Reference Framework for Languages) can apply for a permanent leave toremain in the EC (including a permanent work permit). It entitles him/her to remain in Austriafor an unlimited time.

Prolonging the residence permitIf you want to extend your residence permit, you have to do so before your current residence per-mit expires at the earliest three months in advance. You must make an application in person atthe office of the responsible authority. If the application is submitted after expiration of its validity,it is dealt with as a first application! In order for your residence permit to be extended you mustprovide the same proofs that you did when your first permit was granted (for example an assu-red ability to provide for yourself, health insurance, etc.).

Altering the purpose of residenceIf you have a valid residence permit and would like to alter the purpose of your stay, or if the pre-requisites for your original permit no longer exist (for example the family relationship has beenterminated because of a divorce or you have finished your studies), you have to make that knownto the responsible authorities. Altering the purpose of your stay is only permitted if you fulfill theprerequisites for the new purpose, and if a place in the quota system is free (provided you needsuch a place for the new purpose). More detailed information can be obtained from the respon-sible authority.

Immigration of family membersIf you are legally residing in Austria and fulfill the prerequisites, you can arrange to have mem-bers of your family come to live with you. If you have either a “red-white-red-card”, a “red-white-red-card plus”, a “blue card EU” or the residence permit “permanent leave EC”, members of yournuclear family can apply for a “red-white-red-card plus”.

If you have an “indefinite right to remain” or “indefinite right to remain – dependant”, members ofyour family can apply for a right to remain.

After five years of residence a family member can apply for an indefinite leave to remain forfamily members.

Welcome to Austria – work and the economy

Taxes are directly deducted from your salary. During the annual employee assessment (alsoknown as tax equalization) you can claim certain expenses and perhaps have a part of yourtaxes reimbursed. You can obtain more detailed information about that from your local internalrevenue service office (see section on residential districts).

As an independent worker you are an entrepreneur and in order to be insured you have to applyto the proper social insurance. You can obtain more detailed information about that from theSocial Insurance Institution for Trade and Industry (Versicherungsanstalt der gewerblichen Wirt-schaft – SVA). As an independent worker you do not pay salary taxes, but rather income taxes.Further information about them will be provided by your local internal revenue office (see section10 – information about residential districts).

Groups representing special interestsFor employees there are two important groups that represent their interests: theChamber of Labor (Arbeiterkammer – AK), in which you as an employee are automatically amember, and the Austrian Trade Union Federation (Österreichischer Gewerkschaftsbund –ÖGB). They represent employees, for example, during salary negotiations, and help when que-stions of labor law crop up. In addition, they offer counseling and price reductions for further edu-cation. Members must pay a fee, the amount of which depends on how much they earn. Furtherinformation can be obtained from the ÖGB and the AK (see address section).The institution that represents employers and independent workers is the Chamber of Com-merce (Wirtschaftskammer – WKO). Membership in it is compulsory.

4 EducationIt is important to have good education; it brings you advantages both on the job and in society.Inform yourself about the opportunities for training and education in Austria so that you can decidewhich of them might come into question for you!

Children/AdolescentsYour child needs a good educational background in order to have a successful future. Proper edu-cation will give him/her a better chance in his/her profession and reduce the chance of his/her be-coming unemployed!

Education, however, does not begin in school: the foundation for a successful education is esta-blished earlier. The better a child speaks its mother language, the easier it is for him/her tolearn other languages. Parents are the experts for the mother tongue and therefore they arevery important for the linguistic development of the child! Information about promotion of languageat an early age can be found on the web page www.sprich-mit-mir.at.

Welcome to Austria – Education

Speak with your child in the language you feel comfortable with and you have the best commandof – your mother language is very important for your child! In addition, your child should have anopportunity to learn German at the earliest age possible, for example by attending a nurseryschool (”Kindergarten“). It needs a good command of German in order to be successful in school!

Support in matters concerning parenthood and education can be obtained from one of the insti-tutions for counseling parents and families (see address and district sections).

School systemThe Austrian school system offers so many different possibilities, that we can only present anoverview here. You can find more detailed information on the web page of the Federal Ministryfor Education, Arts and Culture (see address section) and on the web pagewww.bildungssystem.at.

Crèche [Kinderkrippe] (0–3 years) and nursery school [Kindergarten] (3–6 years)In crèches and nursery schools children are taken care of and encouraged by trained pedago-gues. The children can improve their knowledge of language while they are playing and enjoy-ing themselves.It is important that you apply for a place in a crèche or nursery school for your child as soon aspossible (about one year before he/she is going to start). The last year of kindergarten before thebeginning of school is compulsory, and in many cases gratis. You can obtain information about thechoice of crèches, nursery schools and kindergartens from your local or municipal authorities.

Registration for school and compulsory school attendanceNormally school begins in Upper Austria on the second Monday in September for all childrenwho have had their sixth birthday by the 31st of August of the same year.

Your child has to be registered in the primary school that is responsible for him by November ofthe previous year (so-called ”Schuleinschreibung“). The dates and times will either be officiallyannounced (posted on the gate of the school), or you will be informed of them by mail. Whichschool it can attend depends upon the school district in which your main place of residence islocated. At the time of registration your child’s knowledge of German will be checked. If it is notsufficient, you will receive a ”language ticket“, a voucher for 120 hours of language training inkindergarten.

Compulsory school attendance in Austria generally lasts nine years (up to the 15th year of life).

Learning instills a thirst for knowledge! Bread, fruit and vegetables give your child just the kindof energy that he/she needs for school☺

Welcome to Austria – Education

School readiness and preschoolThe school might possibly decide that your child is not yet ready for primary school and shouldinstead attend a preschool. The one year of preschool counts as one year of compulsory schoolattendance and helps to promote the development of your child, so that he/she can afterwardsbegin the first class of primary school.

Primary school [Volksschule]The first school that your child will attend is the primary school. It lasts four years, which corre-sponds to the 1st to 4th grades of school. In elementary school your child acquires important skillssuch as reading, writing and arithmetic.

Parents have a number of possibilities to contact their child’s teacher. First of all, there is a note-book for parents, in which the teacher writes important information. Then there are weekly con-sultations and visiting days for parents. At parent’s evenings you learn among other things whichactivities and events the school is planning (weeks in the country, skiing courses, language-lear-ning weeks, excursions, etc.). There you can also communicate with other parents and exchangeideas with them. Besides, there are parents’ organizations which help pupils and teachers carryout these activities.Excursions with classmates are especially important for pupils. They give them the feeling of be-longing to a group and strengthen friendships.In addition, there are afternoon activities to promote the skills of pupils in many schools: helpwith homework, help in learning or even courses in the native languages of the pupils. Find outwhich of these activities your school offers and make use of the possibilities!

After completion of primary school your child has various possibilities: attendance of a lowerlevel of secondary school (”Allgemein bildende höhere Schule“ – [AHS]),a lower secon-dary school [Hauptschule] or a new secondary school [Neue Mittelschule]. Get counselingabout the different kinds of schools in time (that means at the beginning of the fourth grade) andregister your child in his/her new school early enough! In many schools there is a visiting day(”Tag der offenen Tür“) on which you can come to the school and find out what it has to offer.

A child needs the support of his/her parents in order to learn properly. It is important for youto be informed about what is happening in your child’s school. Ask your child what he or sheneeds for school and take a look in the parent’s notebook regularly!

Make sure that your child has a quiet place to work at home, where he/she can do his/her home-work without being distracted by television or by brothers and sisters who are playing.☺

Welcome to Austria – Education

In addition to the aforementioned schools there are private ones that use special pedagogicalmethods (e.g. Montessori schools and Waldorf schools).

Lower secondary school [Hauptschule] and lower level secondary school [AHS-Unterstufe]Lower secondary school lasts four years and corresponds to the 5th to 8th grades. In the majorsubjects (mathematics, English and German) the students are divided into ability groups, where-by the highest one, number three, represents the lowest performance level.

Your child’s primary school graduation certificate has to be graded ”very good“ for him/her to beaccepted in a lower-level secondary school, and sometimes the children also have to take anadmission exam. In these secondary schools (AHS) the students are not divided into abilitygroups. The level of instruction is therefore similar to that in the highest-level ability group of thelower secondary school.

Special needs school [Sonderschule]The aim of this school is to help students who need special pedagogical aid because they arephysically or mentally handicapped (for example because of special learning difficulties, blind-ness, deafness, etc.) and to promote their integration. This kind of school can be attended duringthe entire period of compulsory education.

New secondary school [Neue Mittelschule]The new secondary school is an educational experiment, in which all 10 to 14 year old students(5th to 8th grades) attend the same classes. They are not divided into lower level secondaryschool (AHS Unterstufe) and lower secondary school (Hauptschule). The students of this schoolare, however, divided into learning groups, which are rearranged whenever it is necessary. Thismakes it possible to better attend to the needs of the individual students. You can find moredetailed information about the new secondary school in the website www.neuemittelschule.at.

After the eighth grade (the fourth class of lower secondary school, secondary school or newmiddle school) the children have to decide on their future educational goals.

There is a teacher in every school who is responsible for educational counseling. Find out whichteacher that is in the school of your child!

If the period of compulsory education has not terminated, the student must attend a pre-vocationalcurriculum (one-year ”Polytechnischer Lehrgang“), or another kind of secondary school for atleast one year (see below). In Austria, every child is required to attend school for nine years,before he or she can begin to work or start an apprenticeship.

ApprenticeshipA person who is about to complete his or her compulsory education and wants to begin anapprenticeship should start to look for an appropriate position in a firm during his/her last year inschool. The better the grade on the graduation certificate, the better the chance of being accep-ted in the desired apprenticeship. More detailed information about the professions for whichapprenticeships are available can be found on the website www.berufsatlas.at. The job coachesof the youth service of the Province of Upper Austria (see address section) support adolescentsin their search for an apprenticeship. Individuals who have not had apprenticeship training oronly completed a part of an apprenticeship, can in exceptional cases be admitted to the finalapprenticeship exam. Further information about that can be obtained from the Chamber of Labor(see address section).Apprentices also have the possibility of completing the matura (final secondary school exami-nation) and then attending a higher school. You can find further information about that in the web-site www.ooe-lehre-mit-matura.at or obtain it from the youth service (see address section).

The choice of the right profession is not easy and needs to be well considered. Avail yourselfof the possibilities for counseling before you make this important decision.☺

Frequently asked questions

What does the speech therapist do?Explained in simple terms, the logopedist or speech therapist examines your child to find out whether his/herspeech is properly developed (comprehensibility, voice, hearing, etc.). If he/she detects abnormalities, atherapy is advisable. This is not to be confused with a remedial course in the German language.What does it mean, when we say that a child needs special remedial help (sonderpädagogischerFörderbedarf – SPF)?Children who cannot follow the school instruction because of a physical or mental handicap need specialremedial help. They either attend a special school or integrative classes in a normal school. If it is determinedthat a child requires remedial help, that has serious consequences for his/her further education. Thereforeit is important to determine whether there are other reasons (for instance, language problems) why the childis having difficulty following the courses.What does ”pupil with exceptional status“ (außerordentliche/r Schüler/in) mean?If your child does not have a sufficient knowledge of the German language to follow the courses, he/she canattend the school as a ”pupil with exceptional status“ for twelve months. That means that he/she can attendclasses and learn with the others without getting a grade.What do the parents have to do?Not only students (pupils) and teachers have duties to fulfill; parents also have obligations. They shouldmake sure that their child gets to school on time, that it has everything it needs for school and that it hasdone its homework. It is important for them to maintain a good contact to the school and the teachers. Thatmeans, for example, going to parent-teacher meetings.

Some of them are especially designed for women or for mothers (”Mom learnsGerman“).

Recognition of final certificates from educational institutions (”Nostrifikation“)If you have completed some kind of studies abroad, you can apply to have your certificaterecognized in Austria. In that case it will be considered, whether the education you have hadabroad is equivalent to that offered in anAustrian institution. In any case, you must prove that thiscertificate is absolutely essential for your professional work in Austria.Depending upon what kind of certificate is involved, different offices are responsible for the con-firmation. You can find information and advice about this theme on the website of the Chamberof Labor of Upper Austria (Arbeiterkammer OÖ – see address section).

Obtaining final educational certificates and further educationObtaining final educational certificates and further educationA broad spectrum of educational activities is offered in Austria. If you have not completed yourschool education or your apprenticeship, you can do so in Austria, or you can obtain training foranother profession. For example, a number of educational facilities offer possibilities to completeyour lower secondary school (Hauptschule) education. Some schools offer curricula for peoplewho are working. Their courses are taught in the evening.

You can also obtain further education in your current profession. An overview of the possibilitiesoffered in Austria can be found on the websites www.weiterbilden.at and www.erwachsenenbil-dung.at. In addition, educational counseling is offered by the Upper Austrian Chamber of Labor(Arbeiterkammer OÖ), the Vocational Training Institute of Upper Austria (bfi) and the EconomicDevelopment Institute of Upper Austria (WIFI) (see address section).

Financial supportInformation about obtaining financial support for continuing education (for example the UpperAustrian educational account [Bildungskonto] or the educational bonus [Bildungsbonus] of theChamber of Labor, etc.), can be found on the website www.kursfoerderung.at.

Having final educational certificates from abroad recognized in Austria can be a long and diffi-cult process. Inform yourself well and do not get discouraged!�

5 Places to Live inLooking for an apartment …

When you are looking for an apartment, it is a good idea to think about your wishes as far as thelocation, size and costs are concerned and the possibilities available to you. In addition to ren-tal and owner-occupied apartments, there is a combined form (Mietkaufwohnung), in which youfirst rent an apartment and can later buy it.

If you are looking for a rental apartment, your first step is to register as a person looking for anapartment (Wohnungssuchend) at the local authority (Gemeindeamt) or municipal autho-rity (Magistrat) that is responsible, or at one of the nonprofit housing providers (You will finda list of them on the website of the Austrian Association of nonprofit housing providers, seeaddress section).

If you are not an Austrian citizen, you generally have to be registered as a resident in Austriabefore you can register at a housing provider. Even if you have to wait and cannot immediatelyobtain an apartment – on a long-term basis it is advantageous for you to be on the waiting list fora reasonably priced community apartment or for one from a housing provider!

In addition, you have the option of looking for a privately rented apartment. You can mostreadily find one in the weekend editions of newspapers or on the Internet, and besides they areoften posted on supermarket bulletin boards!

Since advertisements have to be short, many terms in them are abbreviated. You can find themost common abbreviations below (see abbreviations for persons looking for apartments).

The costs of an apartmentIf you rent an apartment, you have to pay a number of one-time costs:

• Deposit (Kaution): The deposit usually amounts to two or three monthly rental payments andhas to be paid by the renter. This covers the costs in case the renter does not pay his monthlyrent or damages the apartment.If the apartment is given back to the owner in the condition agreed to in the rental contract, theowner has to return the deposit. Further information about this topic can be obtained from thecounseling facilities listed in the address section.

• Agent’s fee (Vermittlungsprovision): Often a real estate agent finds an apartment for arenter and is paid a fee for his/her services by him/her. Always ask beforehand whether a feewill be charged and, if so, how high it will be. You can obtain further information about thistopic from the counseling facilities in the address section.

• Fee-Charging (Vergebührung): A fee must be paid to the responsible branch of the internalrevenue service for a rental agreement. Its amount generally depends on the costs of the rent.It is usually paid by the renter (tenant).

It is best for you to personally go to the local or municipal authority and tell the person incharge that you are looking for an apartment. The direct contact can facilitate your search!☺

Welcome to Austria – Places to live in

Every month the following costs have to be paid for a rental apartment:

• Rent and operating costs: The operating expenses are for sewage, water, garbage collec-tion, etc. The rent and operating expenses always have to be paid for the following month atthe beginning of the month. If you are not sure whether the rent or the operating costs arereasonable, consult one of the counseling facilities (see address section) and have themchecked.

• Costs of electricity and heating: The expenses for electricity and heating depend to a largeextent on how much you use. They are paid in installments and once a year the customerreceives an annual invoice on which the charges for the following year are determined. Tipson how you can save energy – and thereby money as well – can be found in the chapter onenvironmental protection.

Household insuranceIt is important to take out household insurance for an apartment. If the apartment is, for exam-ple, damaged by water or fire, the insurance covers the costs. If you do not have householdinsurance you have to assume the expenses for the necessary repairs yourself, and that can bevery expensive.

Rental contractYou should conclude your rental agreement in written form. Only then are you legally protec-ted and can among other things apply for financial assistance, for example housing benefits(Wohnbeihilfe – see below). If the rental agreement is only concluded for a certain period of time,make sure that you, the renter, have the possibility of giving notice if you decide to vacate the flat.

Compulsory registrationIn Austria, registration is compulsory. That means that when somebody moves into an area orchanges his/her primary residence within Austria, he/she has to register his/her new main placeof residence at the registration office (Meldeamt), which is located in city hall or in the offices ofthe local/municipal authorities. The necessary registration form (Meldezettel) can be obtainedfrom the local authorities or downloaded from the Internet under http:/www.help.gv.at/Content.Node/documents/meldez.pdf and printed out. Generally a person has three working daysfrom the time he/she has moved to register the new place of residence.

Housing benefitsECC citizens and Austrian citizens can under certain conditions apply for housing benefits ofthe Province of Upper Austria.Citizens of third countries can apply for housing benefits if• they have had their primary residence in Austria for more than five years legally and withoutinterruption and

• Their earnings are subjected to Austrian income tax or they have paid money into the com-pulsory social insurance in Austria as the result of a previous employment and are nowderiving benefits from it.

Further information about housing benefits – in English and French as well as German – can befound on the website of the Province of Upper Austria (see Office of the Provincial Governmentof Upper Austria in the address section).

The rental agreement is an important document that you have to adhere to! Therefore it is im-portant that you understand what you sign, in order to avoid further problems. If you have anyquestions, go to a counseling facility!

If you apply for housing benefits, your application should be completely filled out. It can takea long time to process it, because you may have to later submit further documentation.☺

Please remember that, ...... a person can be confronted with the danger of losing his/her apartment for various reasons.In that case it is important for you to take action as soon as possible and turn to counselingfacilities such as the ”Wohnplattform“ (Platform for Homes and Apartments – see addresssection).

Compulsory insurance and inclusionof family members in insurance

In Austria it is obligatory to have one of the legally recognized public health insurances. If you area worker or employee, you are normally automatically insured by one of them, (for example in the”Oberösterreichische Gebietskrankenkasse – OÖGKK“). Your employer can tell you which insu-rance you have.

Your spouse or partner and your children up to the age of 18 (children who are still in school oruniversity up to the age of 27) can be co-insured with you. There are two prerequisites for this:they have to live in Austria and must not have a health insurance of their own. As far as partnersare concerned, they must be living in the same household.

If you are insured, you are given an insurance numberand an e-card. Take the e-card with you every time yougo to the doctor or to a hospital! The hospitals in yourproximity are listed in the address section of this chapteras well as in the section ”Information about residentialdistricts“).

Exemption from the prescription fee

For social reasons (for example low income) it is possible to get an exemption from prescriptionfees. Further information can be obtained from your public health insurer (see address section).

If you have any questions concerning health or health problems, you should go to a general prac-titioner (that is a physician for general medicine, a ”family physician“). He/she knows your medi-cal history and has an overview of the therapies you have received. You can also go directly toa medical specialist, however.

When you go to a physician, ask him/her if he/she is a panel physician, who is under contract withthe public health insurers (”Vertragsarzt or Vertragsärztin“) or a physician of choice (”Wahlarzt orWahlärztin“).

The public health insurer only bears the full costs in the former case. (The ”OberösterreichischeGebietskrankenkasse“ has a list of all the panel physicians on its website). If you are treated bya physician of choice, the insurer only reimburses you a part of the costs. If your German is notgood enough for you to go to the doctor by yourself, you should take somebody with you who cantranslate for you, or you can enquire if there is a translator in your proximity. (Translator’s remark:You can find a list of physicians in Linz who speak English and other foreign languages in the bro-chure ”Healthy in Linz“, which is published by the municipal authorities.

The first person you should turn to in case of health questions is the general practitioner. Inemergency situations, you can also go to the out-patient department of a hospital.☺

Welcome to Austria – Health

Being off sick and notifying your boss

If you are sick and cannot go to work, it is important that you go to your physician and inform himof your illness. Inform your employer at the same time and send a notification to him/her.

When you are off sick you must do what the physician tells you to so that you can get well as soonas possible. Usually the hours when you are allowed to go out of your house/apartment to doessential chores (for example, to do the shopping) are listed on the notification of illness. The phy-sician who treats you is generally responsible for submitting the notification that you have reco-vered.

(Preventative) health examinations

You can only be sure that you are really healthy if you have regular medical examinations. Thesooner an illness is detected, the better it can be treated. In Austria anybody older than 19 canhave a free health examination once a year. You can obtain more detailed information from yourfamily physician or a general practitioner.

Psychosocial healthBeing healthy not only means feeling well physically, but also emotionally and mentally. Eventssuch as the death of a family member, fleeing from a country or experiencing physical violencecan give rise to fear, nightmares, depression or other problems that sometimes also involve phy-sical illnesses.

In Upper Austria there are a number of facilities that can help you in that kind of a situation andoffer you psychosocial counseling and therapies (see the address section of this chapter and thesection of this brochure on ”Information about residential districts“). In addition, there is a networkof psychotherapists and psychiatrists – you can find their names on the Internet or in the tele-phone book.

Care allowance

If somebody needs continuous care because he/she is mentally or emotionally disturbed or phy-sically impaired, it is possible to apply for financial support (a care-allowance, ”Pflegegeld“ inGerman). Basically Austrian citizenship is a prerequisite for this, but in economic or social emer-gency situations exceptions are made. Further information about this can be obtained from theDepartment for Social Matters of the Province of Upper Austria (see address section).

It is best for you to bring an adult with you to translate for you when you go to the doctor. Chil-dren understand many things imperfectly, and besides what the physician says is not alwaysmeant for children to hear.

If you are ill, it is best for you to go to the physician on the first day of your illness. He/she isonly allowed to date the notification one day prior to your visit!☺

In emergencies and mental crises there are emergency psychosocial services that can be rea-ched around the clock under the telephone number 0732/65 10 15!

Welcome to Austria – Family

7 FamilyYou are expecting a child ...

The first time that your doctor determines that you are pregnant, he gives you a mother-childpass (”Mutter-Kind-Pass“). All of the required examinations from pregnancy to the fifth year ofthe child’s life are registered in it.

If you are working, you have to inform your employer about the pregnancy as soon as possibleand tell him/her when the child is expected. From then on the provisions of the Mother Protec-tion Law apply to you. They entail easier working conditions for you. Among other things, you arenot allowed to work during the last eight weeks before the expected date of the birth and the firsteight weeks after the delivery (mother protection). Employees and women who are derivingbenefits from the unemployment insurance (that means unemployment benefits or emergencywelfare benefits) receive maternity benefits (”Wochengeld“) during that time. Further infor-mation about the mother-child-pass and the maternity benefits can be obtained from your healthinsurance (see address section).As a working mother/father you are entitled to take a leave from your job, which starts in the firstthree months after the birth and can continue up to the second birthday of your child (in German”Karenz“). During that time and in the four weeks after the end of that period, you cannot be firedor made redundant. Further information about the labor laws dealing with pregnancy and thematernity leave from work can be obtained from the Chamber of Labor of Upper Austria (Arbei-terkammer OÖ – see address section).

The first official steps after the birth

Your child is here – sincere congratulations! As a parent you now find yourself in a new situation– and there are official formalities that have to be taken care of. Register the birth of your childat the offices of the local or municipal authorities. There you will get a birth certificate, which youneed to register your child in the city or town where you live (see chapter ”Place of residence“).Put your birth certificate and all of the other documents in a safe place; your child will later needthem!

If you are an Austrian or a citizen of a third country who is legally residing in Austria (see chap-ter ”Staying in Austria and taking up residence here“) you have to apply for a residence permitfor your child within six months after his/her birth. For children of EU- or EEA- or Swiss citizens,who are entitled to freedom of movement within the EU and EEA, a confirmation of registrationor a residence card (”Aufenthaltskarte = documentation“) has to be applied for. Further informa-tion can be obtained from the district commissioner’s office of your administrative district(”Bezirkshauptmannschaft“) or from the authorities of your urban municipality (”Magistrat“) (seethe section ”Information about Residential Districts“).

Have an examination made whenever it is called for in the mother-child-pass. If you do not haveone of the examinations or have it too late, you can in the worst case lose your entitlement toa childcare allowance (Kinderbetreuungsgeld)!

Don’t forget:Obtain a birth certificate (”Geburtsurkunde“) and residency registration form (”Meldezettel“) foryour child!For children who are not Austrian citizens: an application must be made for documentation(”Dokumentation“) or a residence permit (”Aufenthaltstitel“)!

Willkommen in Oberösterreich – Zusammenleben

8 Living togetherLiving together in the community/in the district

In their free time many Upper Austrians are active in associations in their municipalities or di-stricts, especially in rural areas. That can be in a sports club, the voluntary fire department, a mu-sical choir or a women’s meeting. In many towns immigrants have also founded culturalassociations. Find out which associations there are in your municipality and who the best con-tact person for you is – maybe one of these groups is just right for you! Information about free-time activities in your district can also be found in the section ”Information about the residentialdistricts“. If you are interested in art and culture, you can find out about the facilities and institu-tions as well as about possibilities for reduction of prices at the website www.kunsthunger-ooe.at.

Living together in a residential building /in a housing estateWhen many people live together in a residential building, rules are necessary to enable every-body to get along and feel well. Therefore every building has a set of house rules, in which themost important points are established in written form. It hangs in a central place, for examplenear the door of the building, where it can be seen by everybody. In many buildings there is alsoa bulletin board, on which current information of the building administration or the landlord / land-lady is posted. Look at it occasionally, so that you do not oversee anything important!

In addition, there are a number of points that facilitate living together which are not laid down inany set of rules, but can make getting along with one another in everyday life much easier:

• When you move into an apartment, it is a good idea to introduce yourself to the neighbors.Maybe an opportunity for a first conversation will result.

• If you have guests in the evening, speak with the neighbors and ask them to excuse any noise.Especially during the week you should take care not to disturb the neighbors in the eveningand at night. The nightly resting period is from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.

• Especially in the summer months people enjoy spending time together in courtyards and play-grounds. Make sure that, for example, children who are playing there don’t make noisein the evening. Many of your neighbors might need it to be quiet in the evening because theyhave to get up early the next day.

• All of the inhabitants of the building find it pleasant when the staircase, the playground and theinterior courtyard are clean and well-maintained. They feel comfortable living in the building.That is only possible to achieve if everybody makes a contribution. Make sure that there areno shoes, furniture or playthings in the staircases and that refuse is thrown into the appro-priate containers. If a firm doesn’t have to be hired to get rid of the refuse, all of the inhabitantssave money!

If you have a problem with your neighbor, try to talk to him/her and explain him/her your pointof view. In direct conversations problems can often be quickly solved and you can save your-self a great deal of aggravation!

Welcome to Austria – environmental protection

9 Environmental ProtectionThe protection of the environment is a very important topic in Austria. Everybody can make acontribution to it, especially by paying attention to small things in everyday life. The followingpoints are important to remember:

Save electricity:• Turn the light off, when you go out of a room.• Unplug the battery charger when your device (for example your mobile telephone) is recharged.• Turn electrical appliances completely off! When they are on ”stand-by“, they use electricity.• When you cook, use a lid.• Use energy-saving light bulbs instead of the normal ones: they are more expensive to pur-chase, but they use less electricity and last longer!

• Old electrical appliances often use a lot of electricity; new ones of the category ”A“ consumemuch less.

Save water:• Don’t let the water run longer than necessary, for example when you brush your teeth or takea shower.

• Taking a shower uses less energy than taking a bath.• Don’t turn the dishwasher or the washing machine on until it is completely full.

Heating and airing out rooms:• If the window of a heated room is always tilted, a lot of energy is lost. It is better to completelyopen the window several times a day and then close it.

• It is not necessary to always keep all of the rooms well-heated. At night and when you go awayyou can turn down the temperature.

Separation of wasteIn Austria a great deal of attention is paid to the correct separation of garbage, so that some ofits components can be reused. That helps not only to conserve environmental resources, butalso to reduce operating costs. After all, the more garbage that has to be taken away, the moreexpensive it is! The garbage collecting systems can be different in different places of residence.There are recycling containers (”Sammelcontainer“) and used material collection centers (”Alt-stoffsammelzentren“), where used materials and packaging are collected, in cities as well as inrural areas. Garbage is separated in the following manner:

Energy costs money – if you save energy, you also save money!☺

Information about the residential districts – FREISTADT

10 Information about theresidential district

General Information about the District of FreistadtThe district of Freistadt, which was established in 1868, is located in the north of Upper Austriaand is a part of the Mühlviertel, one of the four quarters into which Upper Austria is divided.

To the north it borders on the Czech Republic, to the east on the province of Lower Austria, tothe west on the district Urfahr- Umgebung, and to the south on the district of Perg. Its unspoiltnatural scenery, extensive forests and clean air make the District of Freistadt an attractive regionto live in. As far as tourism is concerned, the District of Freistadt is known for its numerous hikingpaths and bicycle routes away from the main roads. The carved wooden, Altar of Kefermarkt isworld-renouned. The castles of Hagenberg and Weinberg are worth visiting. In the local museumof Freistadt (in the former castle) you can learn about the history of our district . The renovatedhorse-train station in Rainbach also merits a visit. In the last few years a great deal has been doneto promote culture and make history come alive in all of the municipalities of the district.

Economically the district has been on the upswing since the opening of the border to the CzechRepublic in 1989. Many large Enterprises have moved here and a continuation of this trend is tobe expected in the near future. Additional jobs in the region will be created by the enlargementof the network of railways and roads.

Office of the District Commissioner of FreistadtThe district commissioner is situated in the city of the same name, Freistadt. His office has com-prehensive responsibilities. It is amongother things responsible for issuing andextending residence permits as well asfor the procedure for conferring Austriancitizenship on foreigners.

10 Information about theresidential district

General information about the district of Grieskirchen

The district of Grieskirchen is located in the Hausruckviertel, to the northwest of Wels. Its capi-tal is the city of the same name, Grieskirchen. Until Austria acquired the Innviertel in 1779 thedistrict of Grieskirchen was located on the national border, which is why so many castles andpalaces are to be found there.The economic center is the Trattnach Valley. But dynamically-growing economic areas have alsodeveloped along the achses Waizenkirchen – Peuerbach – Neukirchen am Wald and Gaspolts-hofen – Weibern – Haag am Hausruck. Machine construction and structural steel engineering arethe most important industrial branches in the district.In respect to tourism, the health-resort municipalities Bad Schallerbach and Gallspach are well-known. Together with the municipalities Geboltskirchen, Grieskirchen, Haag am Hausruck andWallern an der Trattnach they make up the “Vitalwelt Hausruck”, which successfully promotes itsextensive range of touristic activities. Special attractions are Austria’s largest water-adventure-park Aquapulco, Relaxium, the colored-light thermal bath Colorama in Bad Schallerbach and the“Path of the Senses” (Weg der Sinne), Austria’s first didactic sensual-experience path in Haagam Hausruck.

Office of the District Commissioner of Grieskirchen

The office of the district commissioner of Grieskirchen was the last one to be established in UpperAustria (in 1911) and comprises the court districts Haag am Hausruck, Grieskirchen and Peuer-bach.The office of the district commissioner of Grieskirchen is a customer-friendly service and com-petence center that not only aims to make correct and rapid administrative decisions, but also tocooperate in the designing of the “network” of the district of Grieskirchen. The goal is to preserveand further develop its high quality of life and good basic conditions.

Economically it is one of the most powerful regions in Upper Austria, and as faras tourism is concerned it offers all of the kinds of landscape that exist in Upper Austria. In thenorth there are the foothills of the Alps; that section is a part of the central area of Upper Austria.In the south it includes a large proportion of the Upper Austrian limestone Alps with the steeppeaks of the ”Totes Gebirge“, such as the ”Großen-“ (2,515 meter high) and the ”Kleinen Priel“,the impressive ”Spitzmauer“, the ”Großen-“ and ”Kleinen Pyhrgas“.A considerable amount of industrialization has occurred in the district, and some of the firmsthere are oriented toward the international market. That forms a contrast to the touristic deve-lopment, which is of particular importance in the holiday region Pyhrn-Priel.

General Information about the district Linz-Land

Linz-Land, located in the middle of the triangle formed by the cities Linz, Wels and Steyr, has inthe last few years become the district with the largest population and the most powerful economyin Upper Austria.On the peripheries of the district agriculture is still predominant, but in the proximity of the pro-vincial capital, Linz, and along the traffic axis Traun – Enns business and industry are moreimportant and there are a number of shopping malls.As the population of the district Linz-Land grew, numerous businesses and industrial enterprisesas well as shopping malls were established there. The location offers excellent conditions and thetraffic network is optimal for enterprises that do business on a national or an international scale.No other region in Austria affords such a wide range of transportation options: regional andnational highways, expressway and highway connections (Westautobahn, Innkreisautobahn,Mühlkreisautobahn which begins in Ansfelden, Wiener- and Kremstal Federal Highways), waterroutes (Ennshafen), rail connections (West- and Pyhrnbahn) and air transport (Airport Linz).Due to the considerable industrialization, you might think that the district would be less attractivefor recreation. That is, however, not the case. Rarely do you find such harmony between industryand recreational areas as exists in Linz-Land.The colorful scenery with its gentle hills, the fertile fields and stately farmhouses (Vierkanthöfen),the woods, meadows and unspoiled marshes, invite you to walk and hike in places far removedfrom the pulsating life of the urban regions. In the last few years a great deal of effort has beendevoted to the walking and cycling paths. In addition, there are about 250 sports areas.Without a doubt, Linz – Land has mastered the problems resulting from turbulent growth. For asuccessful future we must take care to protect our accomplishments and continue on the esta-blished path.

General Information about the District Wels-Land

The region Wels-Land played an important part in the development of the Province of UpperAustria in the Middle Ages. It began with the Counts of Lambach and Wels. The Traun, the mostimportant river in the region, flows through the district from southwest to northeast. Especiallyaround the ”Welser Heide“ (The Heath of Wels), the landscape is flat, but in some places thereare gentle hills. The district is a relatively unspoiled rural region with diverse cultivated and na-tural areas.The district is also a highly dynamic economic area, which is largely due to its excellent traffic net-work. It offers various recreational facilities as well as cultural and other sights. That is why Wels-Land is a good place to visit.

Geographical location:The Wels-Land District is located in the geographical center of Upper Austria. In the north itborders on the district of Eferding, in the east on the district Linz-Land, in the south on the districtsGmunden and Kirchdorf an der Krems and in the west on the districts Grieskirchen and Vöckla-bruck.
