Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about 4-day week jobs

We currently list 8 companies operating in Austria that have adopted a 4-day work week or similar reduced-hours schedule with full pay. The number shifts as new employers join the 4dayweek.io index and existing ones post open roles. Prominent employers include Auvaria, Büro für Interaktion, and Grayling Austria. Each company profile links to their current open positions and specific schedule policy.
Companies listed for Austria average about 32.8 hours per week and offer about 40 days of vacation per year. Most follow a fixed 4-day-week pattern (commonly Monday–Thursday), though some use 9-day fortnights or flexible arrangements. Full salary is maintained — that's the defining criterion for inclusion on 4dayweek.io. Individual company pages show exact hours, which day is off, and whether the schedule is fixed or rotating.
In Austria, software and technology companies lead the 4-day-week movement, followed closely by consulting, marketing agencies, and a growing cohort of product and SaaS organisations. Professional services and knowledge-work sectors generally outpace retail and customer-facing industries in adoption. Browse the full list above to see the specific industry mix currently hiring.
Public-sector engagement varies by country. In Austria, awareness of 4-day-week pilots has grown following high-profile international trials — the UK's 2022 4 Day Week Campaign trial is the most widely cited. Some regions have public-sector pilots or political party positions supporting reduced hours; others rely on private-sector leadership. Companies on this page operate independently of any government programme and have made the schedule shift as a business decision.
Many of the companies listed here are fully-remote or hybrid and accept applicants from outside Austria, subject to timezone and legal-entity constraints. Individual company profiles indicate their remote-work policy and accepted locations. Cross-border arrangements typically route through employer-of-record services or require the employer to have a legal entity in the candidate's country. Check each listing for specifics before applying.
