Abstract

In Österreich ist die Belastung der privaten Haushalte mit Steuern und Sozialbeiträgen hoch. Die Abgabenquote der Haushalte mit Einkommen überwiegend aus Erwerbstätigkeit liegt mit durchschnittlich 37,3% über jener aller Haushalte mit 34,3%. Die Abgabenbelastung variiert abhängig von Höhe und Struktur der Einkommen: Haushalte im unteren Drittel der Einkommensverteilung wandten 2015 13,4% ihres Bruttogesamteinkommens für indirekte und 12,2% für direkte Abgaben auf (insgesamt 25,6% des Einkommens), für Haushalte im oberen Einkommensdrittel betrugen diese Anteile 6,8% und 30,8% (insgesamt 37,6%). Bezogen auf alle Haushalte weist das Abgabensystem eine progressive Wirkung auf.
