Every year approximately 80,000 individuals have the student status, and according to an approximate estimation by the Student Organisation 80% of those are working. An average student worker is a student aged from 20 to 24, working 38 hours per month, with annual gross salary of 2,000 euros.
Students mainly work in sales, administration, services, promotion, or are performing light or heavier manual labour. Worry that the extent of student work would be considerably reduced was unnecessary; the extent of student work diminished by 3 to 4%, and the taxation remained unchanged.
