FAB - For New paths on the Job Market

In vocational integration we support jobseekers all across Austria and facilitate their access to the job market.

With qualification, employment, care and support we offer those seeking jobs the necessary skills for successful, long-lasting vocational integration.

Our goal is to raise the chances of those who have a poor social starting position, helping them to participate to their utmost in life in society.

With these services being offered, FAB contributes immensely to equal opportunities and is an essential part of the successful, social job market policies.

FAB, with its manifold services and projects from Vienna to Vorarlberg, has become one of the most significant facilitators of an integrative job market in Austria.

We offer our participants the opportunity of developing abilities and skills in different occupational fields. Our participants/employees provide a variety of services. The spectrum ranges from outsourcing solutions in the field of packaging, assembling and metalworking to support with personnel issues, through to catering, renovation and cleaning services.

We are business partners in the fields

  • Personnel (e.g. temporary employment agency, work foundation, training & further education)
  • Production (e.g. contract manufacturing in the areas of assembling, metal processing, packaging)
  • Service (e.g. catering, buildings, green areas, recycling, cleaning, office.)

Programs for Those Seeking Work

Labour Foundations

We support those who are already unemployed or who are at risk of unemployment by aiming for reintegration in the job market through outplacement, emplacement and insolvency foundations.

FAB offers labour foundations for special target groups such as young people or those with disabilities that are exactly suited to meet the needs of these groups.

Temporary Employment

In the FAB socio-economic enterprises and non-profit employment projects those seeking employment are hired temporarily, qualified in both theory and practice in different professional fields and prepared for the demands of the job market.

Qualification and Integration Courses

As an extension of the contents and methods of placement activities of the Austrian Job Center, we assist those who have lost their job or are suffering from an impairment or are not able to enter into the mainstream working life without help and support.

Counselling and Care Facilities

This form of support provides guidance and advice for jobseekers to help them overcome difficult life situations and be able to gain their footing in the labour market.

Sheltered employment

The FAB offers and supports sheltered workplaces at its production sites, with full social security and social-educational guidance for persons with impairments.

Accompanied labour leasing gives people with impairments at FAB ProWork the opportunity to work in companies in the regional labor market. The goal here is for them to become permanently leased to the company or to enter into employment there.

Qualification and Living

Young people and young adults with physical, psychosocial and learning impairments are encouraged and supported in their personal and professional development. The Center for Training through Integrated Employment (AIB) provides support for independent living and entry into the general labour market. In the Virtual Office, young people with physical disabilities receive computer training.

Qualification of Young People

Young people are qualified by FAB with the aim of giving them access to employment or to an apprenticeship.

In FAB, young people learn through practical work and receive the necessary support to establish themselves in the labour market.

Living Space for Recovering Alcoholics

Those suffering from alcohol abuse, having completed an alcohol treatment program, can find in the residential houses of FAB the right setting for returning step-by-step to a life of abstinence from alcohol and self-determination.

Programs for Training and Development

With FAB Organos, FAB offers professional training for all occupations that involve working with people. FAB Eule provides an inclusive course programme for both people with and without disabilities.
