More Hungarians Working Abroad
"This winter season, 30-35% more Hungarians are taking jobs in Austria or in the Alps in Germany and on the French-Italian border, Napi Gazdaság reports, citing west Hungarian recruitment agencies. The Austrian labour service reports that 26,000 Hungarians are working in Austria.

Whereas it was mostly young persons who took such jobs in the past, many above 35 are now also interested, said László Kovács, head of job agency Euro Travel.

Some 80% of Austrian four- and five-star hotels are looking for workers, according to Austrian hotel association ÖVH."
