Pragmatization
The pragmatism is a term from the Austrian civil service regulations and the establishment of a designated public law relationship with a local authority (federal, state or municipality). The public service relationship is initially provisional and can therefore be terminated if the civil servant does not prove himself . The so-called definitive position, i.e. the non-dismissability , of the civil servant occurs depending on the service law of the respective federal state or the federal government ex lege through the passage of time or through a further legal act (official notification).
Pragmatization is a very common term in Austria that is often used in public political discussion. In recent years the possibility of pragmatizing civil servants has been used significantly less, especially by the federal government. The federal state of Vorarlberg has abolished the possibility of pragmatization for new employees.
The public service relationship between local authorities and their employees (“public servants”) was called “service pragmatics” from 1914 to 1979, and since then it has been referred to as “civil service law”. Public employees employed under private law are referred to as "contract employees" in Austria and fall under " special private law ".
