Social Security in Germany

Modul 2: Working Conditions

22.06.2023 | 12:00 - 13:30 
Online via Zoom

with Sebastian Hoffmann (Touring Artists)

This webinar deals with the basics of the German health insurance system. You will learn the difference between private and statutory insurance, how health insurance for employees works and the basics of the Künstlersozialkasse (KSK). As in the webinar on taxes, special attention will be paid to "hybrid workers" who work both as employees and as self-employed. You will also get a general overview of the German pension insurance system, the Versorgungskammer der deutschen Bühnen, unemployment insurance and other insurances. At the end, there will be a short overview of the coordination of social security in Europe, which is important if you work outside Germany.
