She explained that the nature of the work is such that caregivers are paid well as a way of motivating them to give off their best.

Pokuaa said being paid 5000 Euros equivalent to 65,000 cedis a month is an amount that is impossible to earn due to the huge tax deductions.

“It’s possible to get 5000 euros in this job, but tax deductions mean you cannot take all the 5000 home. However, after paying taxes, you will be happy with what is left," she said.

According to Academics.com on the income tax for foreigners in Germany, up to 40% can be deducted from anyone making about 5,000 Euros month, which brings the regular monthly salary to about 3,000 Euros (GH¢40k).
