Mini-jobs Give German Employers New Flexibility
( Economy & job market insight aka pros and cons of part time jobs )
Germany's relatively strong economy has led to a proliferation of "minijobs," a special employment classification originally designed for ' stay-at-home mothers ' that allows people to earn up to 450 euros a month tax-free.
About 7.4 million people, or nearly 1 in 5 working Germans, now hold these low-wage, part-time positions, which include restaurant and clinic work, says the Wall Street Journal. Proponents say minijobs give employers flexibility to adjust their workforces and keep wages low; opponents say they trap workers in marginal occupations.
Your take ?
Low wage but tax free jobs help a lot.
No ,this robs employees of perks, emoluments, leaves & rights
Reduces unemployment , esp for young moms with babies & senior citizens.
