In Austrian politics, the Federal Ministry of Social Affairs, Health, Care and Consumer Protection (Bundesministerium für Soziales, Gesundheit, Pflege und Konsumentenschutz) is the ministry in charge of welfare policy. The Ministry was first created in 1917 as the Ministry of Social Welfare (Ministerium für soziale Fürsorge). In its modern form, it dates back to the 1987 establishment of the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs (Ministerium für Arbeit und Soziales). From January 2018 to January 2020, the Ministry's official name was Ministry of Labor, Social Affairs, Health, and Consumer Protection (Bundesministerium für Arbeit, Soziales, Gesundheit und Konsumentenschutz). It is responsible for welfare, senior citizens affairs, health care, and consumer policy; it is also charged with stimulating job creation and fighting unemployment. In spite of its official designation, the Ministry is only rarely referred to as the Ministry of Labor (Arbeitsministerium). The moniker does see occasional use, but the traditional short form of Ministry of Social Affairs (Sozialministerium) clearly predominates. More information...
