In order to ensure the safety of guests and to present Austria as one of the world’s safest travel countries, tourism employees are being tested nationwide on Corona according to the Austrian government. As of July, up to 65,000 tests per week are to be carried out in this way.

These comprehensive tests are designed to prevent employees from spreading the virus in the event of infection. The guests should be able to feel so comfortable and safe and thus be able to enjoy a carefree holiday.

Employees with direct guest contact, such as the reception, or service staff are tested first. Then, depending on the free capacity, other employees. In the case of an employee who tested positive, the employee is put in quarantine. The hotel can continue to operate. Companies that take part in the regular corona tests should also be able to communicate this to the guests by means of visible identification.
