The differences in the collectively agreed pay of trainees are enormous.
The earnings depend not only on the industry, but also on the region.
The lack of
nursing staff
has given trainees in this area the
top position in terms of collectively agreed training allowances
in Germany.
However, they have to be paid according to a collective agreement for the public service, as reported by the collective bargaining archive of the Institute for Economic and Social Sciences (WSI) of the union-affiliated Hans Böckler Foundation.
Training allowance: Public care pays best in the beginning
Nursing staff in the first year of training
earn 1,161 or 1,163 euros per month, depending on whether they are subject to the collective agreement for the federal government and the municipalities or for the states.
In private care facilities without a collective agreement, however, the training remuneration can also be significantly lower, emphasized the WSI of the German Press Agency.
According to
the report, however, nursing loses its
top position in terms of pay
as the training period increases.
In the third year of their apprenticeship, trainees in the West German construction trade earn the best at 1,495 euros per month, while nursing staff earn 1,328 and 1,333 euros.
