This study aims to see the Austrian social economy and social integrated-enterprises and earn suggestions for activation of social enterprises in our country. It is widely known that Austria has created social jobs in the Third Sector called as a niche market between the market and public and realized welfare society by achieving complete employment and solving social problems. As a result of the study, the Austrian NPOs participating in social economy activities are known to have been playing very actively in various fields such as social businesses, social service, employment service for the vulnerable group, culture, politics, environment, regional development, sports, health, R&D, religion and international aid etc. under the official or unofficial assistance from the government. Having especially been playing an outstanding role in social businesses and social services for the vulnerable group including the old, women, youth and handicapped, thus having huge impacts on both employment and GNP of the country, the NPOs are positively considered as a new rising alternative of the nation’s development and market functions. According to searching for good examples for social job creation in Austria, Caritas, Hilfswerk, Volkshilfe, Diakonie have been producing reliable economic effects, providing a large scale of social service through nation- wide networks. Furthermore, since 1980s, they have been offering very active assistances through social integrated-enterprises designed to help the vulnerable group including the long-term unemployed incapable of getting into the labor market for themselves to move into the regular labor market by giving labor chances and improving their working ability. Such efforts give us lots of suggestions, I suppose.
