Earnings
The amount of an employees income depends on the level and type of
professional training, the experience and the current state of the vocational
qualification.
Besides this, also actual customer demand plays an important role.
The remuneration is principally based on the Collective Agreement on
Remuneration (Entgelttarifvertrag) made between the Federal Association
of Private Employment Agencies (Bundesverband Zeitarbeit, BZA) and the
German Trade Union Federation (Deutscher Gewerkschaftsbund, DGB).

The applicable collective agreement defines nine pay grades. According to
this gradation, the minimum pay for ‘unskilled workers’ without
experience is currently 7.89 Euros per hour.
The minimum pay for employees who completed a full course of study at a
university and already have experience is 17.76 Euros per hour.
Following the provisions of the collective agreement, these hourly rates
will increase by duty-related allowances between 2 and 7.5 percent.
In case of an uninterrupted assignment to a single customer, a duty-related
allowance is to be paid: 1.5% after nine calendar months, 3.0% after twelve
calendar months.
