The working age is typically higher than what's shown on this page. It lists "Work" as age 25-64. 25 is chosen because "Teenager" goes up to 20 instead of 18, and "Studies" go through 24 instead of 22 (roughly considering that about half of the college-aged population attends it [1]). Roughly a third of high schoolers already have jobs [2]. If these students have been working 35 hours per week part time while still in school [3], that could tack on an extra 1.25 years of "work" by the time the students have graduated, assuming they had been working for about 6 years
