RS 02001.660 General Coverage Rule for Employment under the U.S. - Austrian Agreement

A. Coverage rule and exceptions

1. General territoriality rule

Generally, persons will be subject to the laws of the country where they perform the work. A person who would otherwise have dual coverage under the laws of both countries, will remain covered only under the laws of the country where they perform the work.

2. Exceptions

The Agreement provides several exceptions to the territoriality rule to ensure that a worker's coverage is under the system of the country to which they have the greater attachment. The references cited below list these exceptions.

B. Reference

RS 02001.662 - RS 02001.670, General coverage rules for employment.
