Digitalisation in Austria: Progress and Home Office Potential

Austria's performance in the digital transformation has been average by European standards. This is illustrated by a monitoring of selected indicators on the digital transformation of various areas of the economy and society. The growing importance of digital change has become quite evident in the current COVID-19 crisis. In addition to appropriate digital skills, self-organisation and adaptability in the organisation of work and communication are essential for both companies and employees. In the international context, however, Austria still has a lot of room for improvement in the prevalence of working from home.
