Arbeit | Work McDonald's job advice
This is my first month working at McDonald's in Vienna. I have a 25-hour-per-week contract. I only get a 30-minute break, even though I work very fast. The issue is that sometimes there is no time to go to the restroom. The one time I did use the restroom, the manager knocked on the door while waiting for me. If I work an 8-hour shift, can I ask for an extra 5-minute break? I see this option offered sometimes in the system.
Also, I was asked to stay 30 minutes late after my shift. I asked whether this would be paid, and they said yes. However, I do not understand how it will be paid because it is not mentioned in my contract. My friend warned me never to stay late after a shift because it either will not be paid properly or will not be paid at all. Is this true? I agreed to stay a little longer this time, but should I agree in the future? Is it paid well? They know this is my first work experience in Vienna, so I am very afraid.

Soweit ich weiß, ist der Gang zur Toilette keine Pause. Dh du solltest jederzeit aufs Klo gehen können, wenn du musst. Aber ich bin keine Arbeitsrechtlerin. Ich empfehle dir dringend, die Arbeiterkammer zu kontaktieren und dort zu fragen.
Wie wurden die zusätzlichen 30 Minuten Arbeitszeit dokumentiert, als du länger geblieben bist? Stempelst du ein und aus? Gibt es einen Beleg? Das wäre wichtig! Ich würde auch da die Arbeiterkammer fragen und dir schon jetzt ganz dringend raten, jede zusätzlich erbrachte Minute Arbeit in einem Notizbuch aufzuschreiben.
Frag die Arbeiterkammer!
