The minimum wage level is currently at €8.65 an hour. There is only a difference if your employer provides lodgings , which is possible when working at a hotel.

Hey patrick. I’m 20 too and have over 2 years experience working in a pub. I don’t know the actual law but i think your boss is right. They can get away with it because they say “it’s the nature of the business we work in!

hey i am working in a restaurant and recently one of my tables left without paying. I was given a warning but told that next time the difference will be taken from my wages. I know that other employees have to pay for walkouts regularly. Is this legal?
