"Recent research by the institute found Australians work more than two billion hours of unpaid overtime a year, a $72 billion gift to their employers.
A typical full-time employee is working 70 minutes of unpaid overtime a day, which equates to 33 eight-hour days per year, or six-and-a-half standard working weeks.
Across the workforce, the 2.1 billion hours of unpaid overtime represented 6 per cent free labour for the economy depends."
Your right its about power stuctures and we have moved toward the employer having all the power and this is the result.There is little fairness left. Thanks Mr Howard.
