Live-ins IV: Need for Action

(in German)

Live-ins belong to the marginalised groups of employees in Germany. Their work situation is often characterised by a lack of contractual regulations, excessive working hours, critical interactions or conflicts between work and other areas of life. In an online survey, 293 live-ins named their suggestions for urgently needed improvements to their work situation.

This publication is additionally available in the four languages of the respondents’ countries of origin (Polish, Bulgarian, Croatian, and Romanian).
