Working student – what about pension insurance contributions?
Hello,
Let's assume I always work €520 during the semester (about 9 months a year) and therefore don't have to pay any pension insurance contributions (since that's all you pay as a student), but during the semester break (3 months a year) I work the same job 25 hours a week and therefore naturally have to pay pension insurance contributions. Do I then also have to pay pension insurance contributions for the €520 job, since I then earn more than €520 a month? Therefore, working more would only make limited sense for me…

As a student, you don't have to pay pension or unemployment contributions. And you already have health insurance.
Yes, you have to pay pension insurance! (and that's what the question is about)
Employment as a student employee is exempt from social security contributions precisely because students are already covered. The course of study is already recognized as pensionable.
