What would you do if you have the troubles with working time?
Problem:
According to the rules of Erasmus+ EVS volunteer needs to have the daily working time no more than 6-7
hours per day. The weekly schedule includes 5 working days, weekends are free. In addition the volunteer
has two extra free days per month. If the volunteer works more time as they suppose to, they can get the
compensation of overworking time. Time management for EVS volunteer's is just as important as for
anyone, Making sure the service and free time is properly balanced is essential.
