Description
A small green poster with a white text box and black text. An image of a cloud above a sunrise is repeated in different colours at the top of the poster.
The poster is titled "Holiday dreams" and was part of a campaign ran by the OGB- the Austrian Trade Union Federation- in 1989 centred around better working conditions and more paid time-off for workers following the success of their 1986 campaign for a 5-week holiday. Text reads: "Holidays: The best time of year for most people. Relax completely. Finally have time for the family. Dreaming, lounging, unwinding. / Strong unions have fought for more and more vacation weeks. 5 weeks minimum holiday. 6 weeks for long periods of employment in the fight for more free time. / The next stage in this struggle has already been determined: the 35-hour week through a general collective agreement. And now: happy holidays to you and your family." (translated from German)
