in Burgenland, a significant change has recently resulted in the income relationships between the people in the region significantly. The monthly minimum wage was raised to 2270 euros net. This is intended to ensure that everyone who exerts a 40-hour job receives an adequate income. This decision was made to improve the living standard of the employees and to give them a better life.

The advance of lifting the minimum wage did not come without resistance. The court councils were not enthusiastic about this measure, but according to those responsible, the financing for the increase in the minimum wage is feasible in both the state administration and in the economy. Hans Peter Doskozil, a prominent personality in politics, emphasized that it is not enough to just release funding. Instead, people must be given appreciation that they earn so that they can live from their income. "In times like these, this is the right answer," says Doskozil.

Reality in the housing market

In parallel to the news about the minimum wage, there are also challenges in the housing market that affect the middle class. Mario Leiter, a mayor from Bludenz, made clear statements about the current conditions in Vorarlberg. The border for the allocation of non -profit apartments remains unchanged for two adults with 4200 euros in household income, which takes the opportunity to benefit from these apartments.

In comparison, the borders are higher in other federal states, which makes the situation in Vorarlberg particularly frustrating. In Tyrol, the limit is 6000 euros, while in Vienna it is even 7100 euros. The KIM Ordinance often has no chance of getting a loan for buying an apartment. This meant that many are dependent on rental apartments, which makes this living space even more in demand and the situation of the families concerned also makes it even more difficult.

The situation, according to Lord, requires authentic politics and a real commitment to meet the needs of the population. It is essential that political decision -makers not only make promises, but also find serious solutions that help people find affordable living space. The incessant increase in living expenses makes it necessary for such changes to be implemented quickly and effectively.

The increase in the minimum wage is part of a more comprehensive approach to promote economic justice. It also reflects a trend in which authorities and politics have to think of the needs of citizens. The snapshot in Burgenland and Vorarlberg indicates that both lungs are essential in the area of ​​income as well as necessary adjustments in housing, in order to offer people in the region a better life.
