RE: [Cz-L] ghetto labor remuneration

Yes, they do. Since about a year ago. You can be recognized for voluntary work in the community that you performed in the Cz Gheto area - at a fixed compensation of 2000 Euro. I believe there is also a compensation for forced labor but since I was not involved in such I cannot confirm.

http://www.spiegel.de/international/germany/german-ghetto-pension-system-taken-to-country-s-highest-court-a-832103.html
  is an article called German High Court to Address Ghetto Pensions . .
. I wonder if any of the people who experienced the CZ ghetto would be
eligible . . .

In the article it states, "For years, former laborers in Nazi-era
ghettos have been fighting to get the pension that German law
ostensibly guarantees them. A strict interpretation of that
legislation, however, has meant that a vast majority of applications
have been rejected. Now, a complaint has been filed with Germany's
highest court."
