Germany Weighs the Future of Minijobs The minijob system in Germany has provided millions of workers with flexibility and tax breaks, but its future is uncertain.

Anahita Abdollahi, a 26 year old master's student working part time as a librarian at the University of Cologne, is one of the many workers affected by this debate.
