12 Feb 2026 X Betriebsgesellschaft m.b.H. (Krankenhausbetreiberin, im Erkenntnis anonymisiert)Tyrolean hospital operator: VwGH upholds time clock data in rest period violations Fine
The Bezirkshauptmannschaft (district administrative authority) penalised the managing director of a Tyrolean hospital operator because in September 2022 physicians had not been granted sufficient rest periods after extended shifts and maximum duty hours had been exceeded; the Regional Administrative Court set aside several counts because the time clock data were said to have been incorrect. On an official appeal on points of law (Amtsrevision) by the Minister of Labour, the Verwaltungsgerichtshof (Austrian Supreme Administrative Court, VwGH) partly set aside that ruling: witness statements alone are not sufficient to rebut time clock records.
Time recording data count as evidence – anyone who considers them wrong needs a second control system, not just witnesses.

17 Dec 2025 Asparagus farm without reliable working time records: Raad van State upholds 11,250 EUR €11,250
In May/June 2022, the working time records of an asparagus business (anonymised in the judgment) deviated structurally from the hours actually worked; among other things, Sunday work went unrecorded, so compliance with working and rest times could not be checked. The Administrative Jurisdiction Division of the Dutch Council of State (Raad van State, Afdeling bestuursrechtspraak) upheld the fine of 11,250 EUR, imposed in 2023 without prior warning, including the increase factor of 1.5.
Working time records that do not reflect actual hours are treated as missing – businesses are then sanctioned without prior warning.
