For many young people, the summer period is not only a time for rest and fun, but also for work. According to recent research by OTP Bank, the majority of young people between the ages of 16 and 30 work and save for various purposes, such as an apartment, car or travel.

According to the research, 62% of young people work while studying. 28% of them work casually, 17% part-time, while 12% regularly do casual work. This trend shows that it is important for young people to gain work experience and achieve financial independence.
