Percentage of employed persons with low employment

The dataset shows the share of employed persons with minor employment by gender and immigration status. Under immigration status, the migration background, as well as the distinction between German (naturalized / emigrants) and non-German (including separately persons of Turkish nationality) are recorded. An employment relationship is considered to be minor (or a mini-job) if the monthly income is 450 euros (until the end of 2012: does not exceed 400 euros (slightly paid employment) or the duration of employment is three months (until the end of 2015: two months) or 70 working days (by the end of 2015: 50 working days) per year (short-term employment). In addition, low-income employees can be distinguished according to whether they have a low-income job in their main or secondary activity. Only marginally employed persons in their main activity are considered here.
