A new report says UK workers do £29 billion worth of unpaid overtime in total each week. The Trades Union Congress (TUC) commissioned the report, which said unpaid overtime was likely to go up in the public sector because of heavy job losses expected during this year as a result of Government spending cuts. TUC General Secretary Brendan Barber said: “With tough economic conditions making employers reluctant to recruit, existing staff are picking up much of the increasing work load.”
