Summary

The production of inclusive jets as well as of dijet and trijet
topologies is investigated at HERA. Both the H1 and the ZEUS
experiment have determined the corresponding cross sections with
improved experimental precision, compared to previous
measurements. For both experiments, a hadronic energy scale
uncertainty as small as 1% is reached. The value of the strong
coupling constant alpha_s(M_Z) is extracted and its running is
probed.
