Insurance during the internship semester

If an internship (=practical time in a company) is prescribed during the degree programme and the student receives remuneration, they are not subject to compulsory insurance - regardless of the amount of remuneration or the duration of work. Non-mandatory internships, on the other hand, fall under the same regulations as jobs if they last longer than two months.
