Student work is an excellent opportunity for young people to gain experience, work
habits and get to know different work environments. During the global pandemic,
however, this changed unpredictably. Many businesses closed their doors, student
work was put on the side and no one knew what to expect. In the thesis, we wanted to
investigate the real situation with student work during covid-19 with the help of a
survey. The aim was to use the obtained data and literature to confirm or refute the
hypotheses, while at the same time comparing the attitudes and differences between
other countries in this area. We were interested in what consequences the global
pandemic had on student work, how many young people were able to work and what
kind of work they were able to do, what problems they faced in finding student work
and whether the salary for students who worked during the pandemic increased. With
the help of a questionnaire, we wanted to obtain the opinion of young people on the
researched topic.
With the help of descriptive data analysis, we found that the offer of student jobs was
significantly smaller during this time and that students faced difficulties in finding work
due to the reduced number of jobs and the closure of companies. For this very reason,
many students did not work during the pandemic or got involved in new forms of work
that appeared at the time. Many students also think that they perceived more negative
experiences during the pandemic than positive ones.
The research data shows that we were really not prepared for this and that we need to
pay more attention to it in the future so that we know how to act correctly in the event
of a similar situation.
