Economic Chambers

In Austria, all businesses and industries are represented in the Economic Chambers (Wirtschaftskammern) as stipulated by the Economic Chamber Act, which charters the chambers' constituent trade associations (Fachverbände) as statutory corporations with the responsibility of protecting and representing the interests of their members. Membership in a trade association is defined by a detailed index (Fachorganisationsordnung), according to which businesses in the natural gas and district heat industries are members of the FGW.
