What was paid to the worker is not a bribe, but it is from the forbidden gifts of workers, and it should have been refrained from paying it. The employee must perform his work fully without demanding a مقابل (consideration), and whatever he takes in addition to his salary without the permission of his employer is forbidden, as stated in the : "The gifts of workers are ghulul (ill-gotten gains)." As for studying in school, there is no harm in it.
