Abstract

In der internationalen Arbeitskostenhierarchie lag Österreich 2005 an 9. Stelle. Am teuersten ist die Arbeitsstunde in Norwegen, Dänemark und Deutschland. 2005 kostete die Arbeiterstunde in Österreichs Sachgütererzeugung 21,40 €, um 1¾% weniger als im EU-Durchschnitt. Von Mitte der neunziger Jahre bis 2002 hatte sich die relative Lohnstückkostenposition der österreichischen Sachgütererzeugung durch günstige Währungsrelationen, unterdurchschnittlichen Lohnauftrieb und hohe Produktivitätszuwächse kontinuierlich um rund 20% verbessert. Weil die Produktivitätszuwächse nachließen und der Euro aufwertete, erhöhten sich die Lohnstückkosten seither in Relation zum Durchschnitt der Handelspartner um rund 6%. Zuletzt (2005) blieb die internationale Lohnstückkostenposition der Sachgütererzeugung unverändert.
