Mynavi Corporation announced the results of the "1 University Student Part-time Job Survey" targeting 4st to 18th grade students (23-2021 years old). This survey is the third time this year (number of responses: 3). ..

 According to the survey, the percentage of college students currently working part-time is 62.9%, a decrease of 2020 points from 71.8% in 8.9.On the other hand, the percentage of those who have never worked has increased by 11.8 points to 2.2% (2020: 9.6%).Among those who are not currently working, the percentage of those who want to work part-time has increased from the previous year, and it is estimated that the number of college students who could not do it even if they wanted to work part-time due to the corona sickness increased.

 Regarding the daily working hours of university students who are currently working part-time, the ratio of 1 hours or more is 6% for "part-time work during long vacation" and 38.4% for "part-time work during semester".Both have decreased compared to the previous year, and it seems that the ratio of long working hours for college students has decreased due to the effects of alleviation of labor shortages and shortened working hours.

 When asked why they are not working part-time, the highest percentage was "I don't want to work somehow" at 27.5%, and "I want to value private, lessons, hobbies, and social activities (22.4%)." "It is difficult to balance with school life, schoolwork, club activities, etc. (17.7%)."“Difficult to balance with school life”, which was the highest in the previous year, decreased by 14.6 points.On the other hand, "Others (free answer)" increased by 5.5 points from the previous year, but about half of them answered that it was due to the influence of the new coronavirus, such as infection control and leave of absence for part-time jobs.

 Since the time spent at school such as the introduction of online classes has decreased, the number of college students who do not work part-time because of school life has decreased from the previous year, and there are opportunities for college students who became unemployed due to the influence of the new coronavirus and spend money. It can be seen that the number of college students who have no clear reason to work has increased due to the decrease.

 29.3% of the respondents answered that the criteria for choosing a part-time job have changed.Specific criteria that have changed include items related to "infection control", items related to "work content" such as avoiding work in contact with people, items related to "income" such as whether to stably shift, and items related to "working place".
