is to be made for camp billets and food. The final fixing of the wage
for an eastern worker will be done by the plant office on the basis of the
total wage of the comparable German worker. He is paid from the day he starts
work in the plant.
The eastern workers are subject only to the eastern
workers' tax. Therefore they need not pay wage tax or contributions to the
social insurances and to the German Labor Front. Eastern workers are not to
receive a wage account.
As regards the care of sick eastern workers,
instructions from the Reich Minister for Labor are still awaited. We shall
inform you of these as a supplement to today's circular.
The same
applies to leave and family journeys home. The eastern workers will be given a
chance for saving with interest part of their earnings, as well as for the
transfer of money to their home country. About this, detailed explanations will
also follow. |
