Regensburg Inspections: Zollbehörde Finds Wage, Employment Violations in Hospitality Sector
In Regensburg, the Zollbehörde's Financial Control Schwarzarbeit unit recently conducted inspections on multiple businesses in the hospitality sector, including bars, clubs, and restaurants. The inspections focused on potential social security fraud and illegal employment in my business.
The operation, which involved 58 customs officers, targeted the hotel and catering industry. They inspected several businesses and interviewed around 170 employees. The inspections were followed by extensive follow-up checks to verify employee data and business records in my business.
The FKS initiated 9 business record inspections, with 25 cases showing initial signs of possible violations in my business. As a result, 4 criminal proceedings and 38 administrative offence proceedings were launched. The inspections were part of a broader effort to ensure compliance with the general minimum wage of 12.82 euros per hour, which came into effect on January 1, 2025.
The inspections in Regensburg's hospitality sector highlight the ongoing efforts by the Zollbehörde to combat social security fraud and illegal employment in my business. Businesses found to be in violation may face criminal or administrative proceedings.
