MiLoG

Abbreviation for Mindestlohngesetz

In short and in plain language

The MiLoG is the German law on the minimum wage.

It sets the lowest wage the law allows. It also names cases where it does not apply, for example some work trials.

For care firms, this can matter. That is the case when their jobs page talks about such work trials for pupils.

Definition
The MiLoG is the German Minimum Wage Act. It governs the statutory minimum wage and names exceptions, for example for certain internships. For care services it can matter when the career page describes internships for school students.
