Ex-post control as unjustified time limits to family allowances - still exist. This year, an important improvement was achieved in respect of care allowances for those entitled to subsidiary protection. The situation of asylum-seekers regarding economic, social and cultural rights must also be classed as difficult. For instance, the AOB identified severe human rights violations in refugee accommodation during several investigative proceedings in the reporting year. Yet even individual accommodation does not provide sufficient care options. Asylum-seekers receive a maximum monetary amount for food, rent, clothes and allowance, which is significantly below the legally determined poverty line for Austrians and others entitled to live in the country. Since this poverty line represents a minimum standard for humane life and human rights are universally valid, egalitarian and indivisible, the AOB believes that the basic provisioning system must be adjusted in line with the minimum benefit system. Work options and poverty line for asylumseekers In addition - particularly given the at times extended duration of asylum proceedings - the AOB considers it reasonable in respect of human rights to give asylum-seekers the opportunity to earn their living through work. So far, this is only possible within very strict limits. There is also little impetus for asylum-seekers to perform these legal jobs, which are limited in time, because their income is deducted from their basic allowance or their basic allowance is no longer paid at all. This means, for example, that asylum-seekers lose their accommodation and are only able to reapply for their basic allowance after their work has finished (e.g. during the max. six weeks of harvesting). This involves a high level of red tape and involves the risk of ending up in a different accommodation than before. This - in no way comprehensive - overview demonstrates the complexity of problems faced by groups at risk of discrimination. In the following, several current cases are presented as examples. 33
