    Is a lunch break included here? In Germany it’s the norm to work 40h, but (are obliged to) spend an additional 30 minutes there for lunch. So you’re at work for 42,5h but only get paid for 40.

      Nope, lunch is not included and unpaid (unless specified in contract, but virtually no one pays for lunch). Effectively ypu’re at work for 9.5 -10 hours.
