“…Third, the agencies usually promise to replace a carer in case the relationship between the care recipient and live-in carer does not develop as expected. Such replacement clauses are common in many contexts of mediated home care or domestic work (Silvey 2012;Aulenbacher and Leiblfinger 2019;Wee 2019). On the one hand, they serve to relieve the families from some of their commitment to their care workers.…”

“…They later coined the term 'migration infrastructure' (Xiang and Lindquist 2014) to capture the 'middle space' of migration, that of brokers and recruiters.

“…Az elmúlt közel másfél évtizedben az osztrák állam sikeresen kiépítette a szükséges intézményeket (mint a Pflegegeld összegének megemelése, külföldi gondozók vállalkozói szerződésének lehetősége, szociális juttatások) ahhoz, hogy a kiszervezett gondozás viszonylag könnyen elérhető legyen az arra rászorulóknak (Österle-Bauer 2016). A gondozás piacosodása az intézmények kiépülését és a különböző ágensek (piacgazdaság, állami újraelosztás és a háztartás gazdaságának) szoros összefonódását jelenti (Aulenbacher-Leiblfinger 2019). A három ágens együttes működése a bentlakásos idősgondozás összetett intézményrendszerén belül nem jöhetett volna létre a közelmúltban bekövetkezett demográfiai változások nélkül.…”

“…From a Polanyian perspective, despite the embeddedness of the care market, growing trans-and international competition between brokering agencies stimulates the market's self-regulation along supply and demand. In order to distinguish themselves from others, agencies offer additional services like hourly, nightly, or short-term home care and some even specialize in dementia or hospice care (Aulenbacher/Leiblfinger 2019). While trying to find their own niche and appealing to customers through their professionalism, they complain about bad apples who ruin the market with price dumping and poor service quality (Steiner et al 2019) -a perspective that many stakeholders share.

“…Like the above-mentioned private agencies, the three non-profit organizations display their seal prominently in their (online) advertising. By referring to the agreed standards, they try to strengthen their image as high-quality providers as well as their prominent market position (Aulenbacher/Leiblfinger 2019).…”
