Side hustles now essential for Australian workers

from Sunrise Hosted by LiSTNR

Nearly half of full-time workers in Australia now engage in side hustles, earning approximately $1,000 per month to help manage rising cost of living pressures. Popular side hustles include online coaching at up to $500 per hour, tutoring at around $100 per hour, labour jobs like cleaning and gardening through platforms like Airtasker, and selling pre-loved goods online. What was once considered extra spending money has become a significant contribution to household budgets.
