How does working while still in school affect students’ study habits and
routines? How do they manage their time efficiently despite juggling three things with
two hands? Why do they need to work and earn money? What is the cause and effect
common experience among students. It is not such an easy task, especially for full-time
students who work for more than eight hours. This can be a tough situation among
working students which needs balancing of time between studies and work. However,
issues about high school students with jobs while studying could frequently be heard all
over the world, term-time employment highly increased due to the financial pressure
and the costs of higher education. Despite of government tuition-free education and
eagerness to pursue and finish school, they still are forced or willing to do jobs in order
to see themselves studying. Education is highly valued by a lot of Filipinos in spite the
fact that they reside in a poor country, reason as to why working students are driven
hopes help them towards their future goals. Students face financial difficulties even in
which results to deteriorating physical and mental well-being (Duterte, 2023). Being
financially stressed result to poor academic performance (Wynes, 2014). Nowadays, its
normal for students to work while pursuing their dreams (Villahermosa, 2015).
Review of related literature
2022). Since attending higher education cost a lot, many students work to pay for their
expenses (Perna, 2010). In the study of Ryan et al. (2020), some school already know
that there are working students who are at risk of having their educations interrupted.
Furthermore, Romel et al. (2022) stated that child laborers have experienced extreme
difficulties while providing a living and supporting their studies. In the study by Bennett
et al. (2015), a lot of students work while studying. corespondedly lead to students to
develop stress caused by financial struggles. They also stated that the more students
are financially stressed the longer they take up their working hours. In some instances,
parents don’t earn enough money to support their children at school. As a result,
students are required to provide for their needs by becoming a working student
(Curambao et al., 2015). One of the issues of working students is mental stress.
According to Nancy, (2017), working while studying is exhausting but sometimes the
students need to work extra hours for their daily expenses. Students often find it difficult
to choose between working and studying. Working while studying greatly affects their
studies, sometimes it leads to failure when their not able to finish their assignment,
projects, etc. On the other hand, Lumugdan (2022) said that even though working while
studying has its own struggles, it still has a bright side to it. For example, working while
studying gives you the experience of the real world that you’ll experience once you
graduate. Similar to the study of (Benefits of Student Employment, 2017) A part-time job
can help you become a better student and get a jump on your career track. In the study
of Le Barbanchon et al. (2019), they stated that additional income and work experience
must be considered along with the loss of study time. One of the disadvantage of a
working student is that they don’t have enough time for themselves and for their studies
and maintain a healthy diet (Gorgulho, et al., 2012). In the study of Hovdhaugen
(2015), it was emphasized that there are a lot of reasons why students struggle and one
of the factor is because they’re working while studying. Parents and teachers must work
together to motivate students to stay focused. Likewise, Students who are working must
be able to balance both their professional lives and their student lives simultaneously in
order to be able to succeed (The working student, 2016). Furthermore, in the study of
(Acaso et al., 2019) they stated that working while studying has a big impact on the
academic performance of students. They also emphasized that it is possible for this
condition to have both positive and negative effects. They said that the most common
effect was poor participation in class activities. However, they could relate their work
skills to some school activities. In the same way, students learn to balance time
between work and study. Lastly, the most common factor that affected them was family
and how that served as motivation to achieve and study hard. In addition, academic
achievement can serve as a reward for hard work by providing high grades. A number
of solutions have been outlined in the results to address the issue and avoid the
