What are your rights regarding minijobs and minimum wage as a student?
All employees in Germany, including Studienkolleg (preparatory college) students and those doing minijobs, are entitled to the legal minimum wage. Any offer below the minimum wage is unacceptable. When looking for a minijob, it can be helpful to use online platforms, check university notice boards, and contact local businesses directly.
