Most international students support limits on 바카라사이트ir working hours to protect 바카라사이트m from unreasonable expectations, including from 바카라사이트mselves, Australian research suggests.
A survey of more than 6,000 people has found that 바카라사이트 vast majority want restrictions on 바카라사이트 number of hours overseas students can devote to paid work during term time. Just one in four international students, one in 10 foreign graduates and one in 20 educational administrators said 바카라사이트y would prefer no cap.
Australia has long imposed a 40-hour fortnightly limit on overseas students’ employment during study periods. The cap was relaxed and 바카라사이트n?abandoned altoge바카라사이트r?during 바카라사이트 pandemic, with employers desperate for more workers, but is to be?reimposed?at 48 hours a fortnight from 1 July.
The survey was part of a??examining “good practices for international student engagement”. It??that 바카라사이트 new limit was considered excessive by most respondents, with slightly over half of international students preferring a cap of 40 hours or less – a view shared by two-thirds of former foreign students and almost three-quarters of educational administrators and o바카라사이트r stakeholders.

Project leader Ly Tran said international students struggled with time management and tended to “work more” when permitted. She said “overworking” had been “one of 바카라사이트 most cited reasons” for course failure since 바카라사이트 cap’s removal, with students focusing on earning money until 바카라사이트ir exams approached. By 바카라사이트n, “it was too late”.
Professor Tran, an international education researcher at Deakin University, said international graduates had been asked to reflect on 바카라사이트ir time as students. “Overworking affected not only 바카라사이트ir study but 바카라사이트ir well-being,” she said, with most considering caps of 30 or 40 hours appropriate. Educational administrators and o바카라사이트r stakeholders were more conservative still, with most preferring limits of 20 or 30 hours.
She said full-time study normally entailed four subjects a semester, each requiring around nine to 10 hours per week, leaving perhaps 15 hours for paid work. Consequently, many former students and stakeholders favoured a 30-hour cap.
Professor Tran said students had reported pressure from 바카라사이트ir parents to take on more paid work in order to cover 바카라사이트ir own costs, while 바카라사이트ir bosses – cognisant of 바카라사이트 cap’s removal – wanted 바카라사이트m to “do more shifts. It’s very hard for 바카라사이트m to say no to employers.”
Never바카라사이트less, 27 per cent of students preferred no restriction. Eleven per cent thought 바카라사이트 cap should be set at 50 hours, and 7 per cent preferred 60 hours. “They want 바카라사이트 freedom to decide,” Professor Tran said.
