More than a third of young people between the ages of 16 and 30 are working, they earn 49 %of their brigades. It does not only earn a tenth of young people, and it is even less in the Czech Republic, eight percent. Financial independence is important for this age group. This stems from a survey of an online port platform on a sample 306 respondents in Slovakia and 522 in the Czech Republic.
“The survey confirms that young people are far from being a holiday affair. Up to 32 % of respondents are temporarily working throughout the year, while 17 % of respondents are making money in the summer. This also applies to students, the classic job at school declares 10.5 %, All year round, up to 54.8 % and 24.2 % of respondents. It does not earn only 9.7 % of students in Slovakia. The Czech ones are even more laborious, as only 5.1 % of students do not have a job for our western neighbors, ”said Marek Malina, analyst at the investment platform.
Year -round brigades are popular especially in the Bratislava region and cities over 100,000 inhabitants, where there are more jobs. Young people motivate to look for a brigade, especially the effort to get their own finances, indicating 47.7 %. Besides, it’s also the need to cover routine expenses agreed by 30.2 % of respondents, And as well as Trying to become independent or be less dependent on parents is 28.9 %. Own money as a way to According to the analyst, more freedom perceives more than 53 % of students and almost 36 % motivates independence from parents.
Young people most often earn money from parents and their own housing. However, its availability is very low in Slovakia, so they often live with parents longer than their peers in other EU countries. Eurostat data has resulted that 70.3 % of Slovaks aged 18 to 34 live with parents or at least partially live at their expensethe EU average is 49.1 %.
“From this point of view it is good that Almost a quarter of the respondents among the factors that motivate them to work, also made an effort to postpone the money for later. Without long -term savings or significant help of parents, leaving the native nest is complicated. Much of the young are forced to seek housing in sublets, as it is necessary to save tens of thousands of euros on the mortgage, too, ” explained Malina.
However, if young people have brigade from high school and postpone money or subsequently invest the money, they can afford their own housing. For example, for saving EUR 20 000, it is necessary to postpone EUR 109 per month for an average eight -percent year -old revenue for a period of ten years. Therefore, it is good to get Young people also put some money out of the brigade and did not miss everything.
