A number of Palestinian-Syrians and Syrians working in the German Market are complaining of their low monthly salaries, compared to their German counterparts and other refugees, pointing out that they work for long hours compared to others, however, their average income is much lower than that of other refugees. They add that they preferred working and integrating into the society and being productive, rather than being dependent on the German government, and to prove to the world that the Palestinian refugees wherever, are capable of building themselves and benefiting the community that opened its doors to them.
On its part, the international Media Func platform quoted the Federal Authority for Labor, that: “The average income of full-time refugees is lower than that of many non-refugee workers. The refugees from 8 countries received 1916 Euros per month, before tax cuts and other deductions such as health insurance and retirement insurance in 2016, while a non-refugee worker is paid an average of 3133 Euros per month.”
Meanwhile, the Palestinian Syrian refugees who have been able to reach Germany, complain of the delay in the issuance of their residence, which sometimes takes more than a year, which is negatively affecting the families that have been dispersed across Syria, Lebanon and Turkey, and are waiting to be reunited.
As well as the economic burdens borne by the refugees in those countries, especially with regard to securing the living expenses of those who are waiting for their reunification, which may take several more months to reunite.
