Published: March 12, 2023, 5 p.m.

The Federal government recently announced that from July 1, international students\u2019 working hours would be restricted, as they were pre-pandemic. The old limit was 40 hours a fortnight, the new limit will be 48 hours. We speak to student visa holder Gabriela Matos who works at the Jubilee Tavern in Airlie Beach, Queensland. Gabi explains that it\u2019s not possible to survive on 24 hours a week work and outlines the perils of working illegally for cash, as so many students will soon have to do.\n\nFollow Dirty Linen on Instagram\n\nhttps://www.instagram.com/dirtylinenpodcast\n\nFollow Dani Valent\n\nhttps://www.instagram.com/danivalent\n\nFollow Rob Locke (Executive Producer)\n\nhttps://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/\n\nFollow Huck (Executive Producer)\n\nhttps://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/\n\nLISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS\n\nhttps://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork\n\nDirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.
