“With Josef Taus, Austria is losing an impressive personality. As federal party chairman of the People’s Party in challenging times, he demonstrated leadership and foresight. As a politician and entrepreneur, he understood – like no other person in charge – how important it is for Austria to be a strong home for industry and business. Josef Taus was an economic policy pioneer and thought leader for whom it was always important to keep the interests of employers and employees in harmony,” said state governor Johanna Mikl-Leitner on the passing of the former ÖVP federal party chairman and added: “Our deepest condolences go out his family and loved ones.”
“Josef Taus has inspired generations of politicians – taking on difficult challenges with his vision and courage. We will always remember his work,” adds VPNÖ state manager Matthias Zauner.
