Education and the Workforce, working students are more likely to be
black or Latinx, older, and female.

 According to the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) data reported
by Sembrano, B. (2010) on ABS CBN news, Whatever career path they
choose, these working students are the epitome of resilience,
perseverance, and hard work. A working student's life can be difficult,
but most make it through to tell their own success stories later in life.
Working students were also advised by CHED to take jobs that were less
demanding and more closely related to their courses.
Nature of Work (Service Crew)

 Stated on the figure from Commission on Higher Education (CHED) on


data reported by Sembrano, B. (2010) on ABS CBN news with a headline
“Only half of working students finish college: CHED”, approximately 8%
of the total number of college students in the country and working
students nowadays are mostly involved in food service, entertainment,
and sales, in addition to their traditional roles as library and research
assistants.

 In the article of St. Amour (2019) which focuses on the working College
students, it mentioned that most college students are working as they
study. Article show that students who work 15 hours or more per week
are more likely to have a C or lower grade point average, whereas those
who work less than 15 hours are more likely to have a B or higher-grade
point average. Students who work less are also more likely to be enrolled
in bachelor's degree programs than those who work more.
 According to a report focusing on working students, early employment
helps students develop important workplace competencies such as the
ability to think critically and communicate effectively. Not everyone
agrees that students should be able to balance work and school. Some
are concerned that it will lead to academic difficulties, but students who
work part-time often see positive results. According to research, students
who work between 10 and 20 hours per week have a higher GPA than
those who do not work. Having said that, striking the right balance is
critical.

 Students who work a moderate amount of hours – up to 15, maybe 20
hours a week – those students actually on average do better in school
than students who don't work at all," said Bright Horizons College
Coach's director of college finance, Vasconcelos, S., "But it's clearly more
of an issue for students who have big commitments outside of
classwork," she adds, noting that students who are extensively involved
in extracurricular activities may not be able to keep up with a part-time
job on top of everything else.
 Triventi, Darolia, and Body (2014), in particular, have focused on the
impact of work intensity on academic performance, demonstrating that
full-time jobs have a negative impact on academic performance, whereas
part-time jobs do not appear to have a significant impact.
 Some of the working students work as service crew in a fast-food
restaurant. Some people, particularly those with money, invest in small
businesses. It is a common strategy for some to work as student
assistants in colleges and universities.
 As mentioned on the study of Darolia, R. (2013), working students have
become more popular on college campuses, and each student's working
hours have increased significantly (Baum, 2010; Perna, 2010;
ScottClayton, 2012). The results of this study show that working has
minimal influence on students' grades, whether they are full-time or
part-time. This result is perhaps unsurprising; given that time usage
studies (Babcock & Marks, 2011) show that the time-cost of college
courses is decreasing, implying that greater working time is not
squeezing out study time.

Working Hours
 As shown on the analysis of data from the National Postsecondary
Student Aid Study, the average number of hours worked per week for all
working students in 2016 was 28.3, with full-time students averaging
24.8 hours and part-time students averaging 33.1 hours.
