Was bezahlt man in Deutschland automatisch, wenn man fest angestellt ist?

- Sozialhilfe
- Kindergeld
- Wohngeld
Why this is the correct answer
Social security contributions in Germany are automatically deducted from the wages of every permanent employee. These contributions cover health insurance, pension insurance, unemployment insurance, long-term care insurance, and accident insurance. Welfare benefits, child benefit, and housing allowances are separate payments that one receives under certain conditions rather than contributes to through payroll.
