A recent survey carried out by Peninsula has been highlighted by a number of major news outlets over the past few days.
The survey looked at the increase of unpaid overtime for employees who are staying beyond their contracted hours to complete their work.
The survey, based on 934 Irish employees, found 76% of them work an average of up to 65 minutes extra on a monthly basis.
The survey also revealed that 67% of workers say they occasionally spend time working evenings and weekends without pay to cope with their workload.
The Peinsula survey also highlighted that many employees are using mobile phones to keep up-to-date with work while they are technically off, however 43% feel that their overtime is not acknowledged by their boss.
The survey has been featured on Newstalk, Irish Times, Irish Independent, the Journal, Breaking News, and ireland.com to name but a few. Peninsula's Director Alan Price has been speaking on the topic and said
""There is an ever increasing amount of unpaid overtime work by Irish workers, but yet they get no thanks for it."
