The number of people performing more than one job in Slovakia has nearly doubled in five years. According to Eurostat data, 44,700 people had multiple jobs in 2025, compared to 22,700 in 2020. hnonline.sk ↗
The number of people with multiple jobs also increased year-on-year. Over the past year, 5,600 such workers were added. The trend shows that more and more people are looking for an additional source of income alongside their main job. ekonomika.pravda.sk ↗
One of the reasons is insufficient income, which complicates households' ability to pay regular expenses. However, higher earnings are not the only motivation for taking on a second job. The reasons may also relate to work opportunities and efforts to make better use of available time. STVR (Spravy) ↗
Despite the significant increase, Slovakia remains among the EU countries with a relatively low share of employees who have multiple jobs. The data therefore show not only the growth in the number of such people, but also the persisting gap compared to countries where multiple employment is more widespread. Trend ↗
If this trend continues, the number of people with a second job may continue to grow. Its development will depend mainly on the income situation of households and on opportunities in the labor market.
