Josef Ackerl (born April 13, 1946 in Vöcklabruck ) is a former Austrian politician ( SPÖ ).

After completing a commercial apprenticeship, Josef Ackerl joined the workers' pension insurance company in Linz in 1966 . There he was head of the post department and was from 1972 to 1985 works . From 1976 to 1978 he was chairman of the Austrian Socialist Youth .

From 1980 Ackerl was a member of the Linz municipal council , from 1985 he was responsible for the entire environmental protection (from 1987 also for the trade authority) and the general hospital of the city of Linz in the city senate . From 1991 he was still responsible for environmental protection, no longer for the AKH but for social issues (excluding old people's and nursing homes) and childcare facilities. One of his responsibilities as City Councilor for the Environment was the large-scale redevelopment of the air in Linz.

Ackerl was a member of the Upper Austrian provincial government from 1993 to 2014 . His department covered the areas of communities , traffic law and public transport, health (except gespag -Spitäler), youth welfare, victim assistance, civil status, social affairs, social security , integration of immigrants, refugees and Administration Police. He was also Federal Chairman of Kinderfreunde until October 2011 .

After the defeat of the SPÖ in the state elections in Upper Austria in 2009 and the resignation of regional party leader Erich Haider , Ackerl took over both the party chairmanship of the SPÖ Upper Austria and the post of one of the two regional governors' deputies. In November 2013, he handed over the chairmanship of the party to Reinhold Entholzer . Ackerl left the state government on January 22nd, 2014. On January 23, 2014, Gertraud Jahn was elected as the new SP Social Councilor and Reinhold Entholzer as the new Deputy Governor.

On October 1st, 2013 Josef Ackerl referred to the new head of the Stronach club, Kathrin Nachbaur , in a Facebook entry as "Tussi" and thus triggered a new discussion about sexism in Austrian politics. He led a violent argument with the Schüssel-Grasser government, which he described in 2003 as the "rabble government". To allegedly Pharisee-like behavior - for example the criticism of the double salary of Josef Cap - he expressed himself negative.
