The route to work and its perceived stresses exert a material influence on the job satisfaction of employees. If this also applies to trainees, the question arises as to whether those who have to travel longer distances to their training company are more inclined to dissolve their training contract prematurely than young people whose training venue is closer to where they live. The article investigates this issue on the basis of the Vocational Education and Training Statistics.
