No.
Qualitative Info

Public administration doesn’t reflect the ethnic diversity of society. Due to data protection restrictions data on the national origin of employees in public administration are not collected. However, in the statistic yearbook on migration & integration the share of persons with migration background in the field of public administration and national defence is said to be 8 per cent of the total amount of employees (compared to 18 per cent of the Austrian population with migration background).
