Hi, well this prob will be a strange question, but as I am new to all this working stuff and have nobody to ask this will just ask here, if I got a part time job and they pay 11e per hour and working hours would be 19.5 per week, do I still get minimum wage or how it works? Thanks

Minimum wage is €8.65 an hour. You get €11 an hour. So you get significantly more than minimum wage. You're just paid for the hours you work, so 19.5 * 11 = 214.5 a week.

Minimum wage is an hourly rate, not based on the hours you work.

So 11e per hour is well above minimum wage, even if you only worked 1 hour you'd still be on higher than minimum wage.
