The AMS Skills Barometer of the Dep. for Labour Market Research and Vocational Information of the Public Employment Service
(PES) Austria is a comprehensive online information system on qualification trends for the Austrian labour market.
The structure and presentation correspond to the 24 summarized vocational fields - e.g. from construction/sub construction (work),
electrics/electronics, and media/art/culture – down to the level of individual professions. The regional characteristics are also
taken into consideration (at the federal state level). Additionally, the most strongly requested occupations and qualifications in
each of the 24 vocational fields are included in the Top 5 Jobs.
The AMS Skills Barometer addresses both the broad public - e.g. persons, who are confronted with taking a decision on their
vocational future - and in particular the PES employees, journalists and decision makers in the fields of education, vocational
training, politics and economics.
It is the abundance of the contained data, its up-to-dateness, its forecast function and, last but not least, the clear presentation
of data that turns the AMS Skills Barometer into a valuable instrument for all those who are interested - privately or
professionally - in the developments of the labour market.
The guided tour and the help sites provide extensive support with the browsing through the AMS Skills Barometer.

On the up-to-dateness of the texts and sources of the AMS Skills Barometer
Most of the information texts of the AMS Skills Barometer are being up-dated half-yearly, the remaining texts once
annually. The forecast function amounts to four years.
The surveys, together with the results of expert interviews and the extensive analyses of published vacancies in the
Austrian media, contribute additionally to the work promoted by the AMS Skills Barometer. Executives, staff managers
and members of executive committees of vocational associations and guilds are regularly interviewed. The labour market analyses
are based on the continuous monitoring and analysis of the most important media; currently 84 daily and weekly papers are searched through.
