Why do I find working in construction so bad?
The very idea of it is horrifying. Construction work, especially as a laborer, would certainly be brutal, but even with training, it's backbreaking work. And you don't earn any more than someone in an office.
So why would anyone let themselves be destroyed in construction for such little pay? Who would even do that voluntarily?
Someone who has either not reached a school degree or a migrant whose school degrees are not recognized here.
And for them is the good money?
Better money than unemployment or civil money
And 2500 brutto isn’t much in Germany, is it?
But it does because you don’t have to pay the care and unemployment insurance 😃
For this, you have to pay the expensive sickness fund yourself. So don’t make a difference.
so with 5,000 francs a month will not come so far in Switzerland. Believe me. This might be 2,500-2000 gross in Germany.
In Switzerland, tax social charges are also dispensed with…
and in Switzerland, a help worker in the building earns about 5,000 francs, which may sound after a lot, but to destroy the body is not worth it.
Because that may be enough to live alone, but much is not in Switzerland. Better to learn something sensible, then you earn over 6000 francs in the month, and don’t have to ruin his body.
But of course you need some qualifications.
Incidentally, a learned mason does not deserve much more than an assistant worker.
And as a result, more than citizens’ money
So in Germany, a help worker on the building deserves only a minimum wage, right?
