Is the End Nigh for Internships?

Abstract

Has the introduction of the legal minimum wage on 1 January 2015 impacted the offering of internships? Are a growing number of internships being offered that are exempt from the minimum wage? These issues were covered by a special question in the latest Randstad-Ifo Personnel Manager Survey. The survey results show that the number of internships offered fell sharply in 2015. Almost one in two companies that previously offered voluntary and/or compulsory internships, stopped offering internships as of 2015. This would seem to suggest that it has become harder to find an internship since the introduction of the legal minimum wage.
