More than three-quarters of Brits are working an extra 19million days of unpaid overtime each month

UK workers are doing the equivalent of 19million extra days of unpaid overtime each month.

Research of 2,000 employees found 87% work an average of five and a half hours more every month outside their contracted agreement which they aren’t paid for.

This amounts to 153million cumulative hours of work each month which goes unpaid – or 19million eight-hour working days.
