Construction Helper (Bauhelfer)

Core responsibilities (Bauhelfer)

• Support unloading, staging and internal site logistics (materials, tools, consumables).
• Keep access routes clear: basic cleaning, waste sorting, removal of debris according to site rules.
• Assist trades under supervision (e.g., holding elements, fetching parts, preparing work areas).
• Prepare simple mixes and basic materials (where allowed): mortar, concrete buckets, insulation packs.
• Perform light demolition and disassembly tasks where instructed (non-structural, controlled scope).
• Follow safety instructions precisely: PPE, access zones, lifting limits, traffic routes, tool discipline.

How good helpers stand out

• They work predictably: on time, consistent pace, no “missing minutes”.
• They prevent rework: protect finished surfaces, store materials correctly, keep the site organized.
• They communicate early: report damage, shortages, or unsafe situations immediately.

Who fits this role

You are reliable, physically capable, and comfortable in a structured site environment. You do not “improvise” with safety. You prefer clear tasks, steady work, and you understand that a helper role is evaluated by discipline and consistency.

What “legal and realistic” means in Germany

Germany has a statutory minimum wage. From January 1, 2026 it is €13.90 gross per hour. For construction projects, additional pay rules can apply depending on sector and site arrangements. The baseline principle is simple: pay must comply with German minimum standards for the work performed.

• Minimum baseline: no legal offer can fall below €13.90 gross/hour (01 Jan 2026).
• Role impact: documented site skills can move pay above the baseline (tasks, pace, reliability, experience).
• Overtime: if applicable, it must be recorded and compensated according to the applicable rules in your arrangement.

Typical setup (project-based)

Some projects are staffed by a Polish employer supporting works in Germany. In practice this means the employer coordinates onboarding, documentation, and operational support while work is performed on German sites. What candidates usually care about is how compliance, payroll, and daily logistics are handled.

• Employment basis: written employment terms with the Polish employer; assignment describes the German project scope.
• Posted-worker compliance: required documentation is prepared for lawful work allocation where applicable (project and profile dependent).
• Pay transparency: gross pay is defined clearly; you receive payslip documentation consistent with your arrangement.
• Site readiness: PPE rules, site induction, and safety routines are mandatory—Germany sites are strict.
• Operational logistics: depending on the project, accommodation/transport can be arranged or supported (details vary by assignment).

Important: third-country nationals (non-EU) still need a lawful right-to-work route for Germany/EU. Being linked to a Polish employer does not automatically create eligibility. We assess feasibility case-by-case based on nationality, current status, and documents.
