Abstract

One of the biggest challenges facing students is finding a source of livelihood after completingor during their studies. The expectations and preconceptions of a significant proportion of thegroup wishing to enter the labour market are poles apart from the offer of employers which isthe reason for the complicated initial placement. Students who enter the labour market aftergraduating find it difficult to leave the labour market in favour of full-time studies. Some therefore choose the form of correspondence training or try to cope with both on a part-time basis.In our study, we compare the most common forms of student employment from a legal and taxperspective, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages arising from the differences for theparties involved. The comparative analysis quantifies student benefits and employer costs, considering the tax rules of the last few years. The results of the study show that the dual trainingform is the most advantageous in several respects (e.g., the relative cost advantage and thebenefits) from both the student and the employer's perspective.
