The Canadian government has made a new rule for international students. Under this rule, now foreign students can work outside the college campus only 24 hours a week. This rule is coming into effect from May 1. Previously, international students were allowed to work no more than 20 hours off campus. Canadian Minister Mark Miller said the temporary permission for students to work more than 20 hours off campus will expire on April 30. It will not be taken further. Our aim is to reduce the number of hours students work off campus to 24 hours per week. It is noteworthy that during the Corona epidemic, the Canadian government had temporarily removed the limit of working 20 hours a week. However, this exemption ended on Tuesday. According to the 2022 report by the Canadian Bureau of Investigation, there were 3,19,130 Indian students in Canada. Indian students focus more on off-campus jobs. According to Miller, the purpose of allowing only 24 hours is to allow students to focus on their studies. According to the report, the academic performance of students who worked more than 28 hours per week declined significantly.
The decision was taken after noticing a decline in the performance of students who were overworked.
Regarding the rule of reducing working hours, the Canadian government said that the academic performance of students working more than 28 hours is weakening. Due to this, the government has said that the government has taken this decision only in their interest.
