Today is Go Home On Time Day

24 November 2010

Today, Wednesday 24 November 2010, is national Go Home On Time Day.

Research from The Australia Institute finds that Australians work more than 2 billion hours of unpaid overtime every year! Around half of all employees work more hours than they are paid for. On average, a typical employee works 49 minutes of unpaid overtime per day. For full-time workers, the average daily amount of unpaid work takes more than one hour.

Overwork can have negative consequences for your physical and mental health, your relationships with loved ones and your sense of what is important in life.

Today, out of all days, you should get yourself a Go Home On Time Day Leave Pass and go home on time.
