Hi,

I voted 45-50. Although I only get paid for 37 hours, the rest is done as unpaid overtime - while the company don't actually require it - they do kind of expect it...

I am relatively new to the company and there is a huge amount of work to catch up on. I intend to reduce this overtime as soon as I can.

Hello all,
40 to 45 hours.I don't get paid for overtime.

Im not a Quality Manager but a Supplier Development Manager. We have a standard 40 hour week but i average work 50+ hours per week. I don't get paid vertime either but i do feel that if you are on a certain level in an organisation, you also have a certain responsibility. And if taking this responsibility requires me to make overtime,than so be it. Comes with the job, the responsibility...

One thing that is not taken into consideration is where a person is at in the certification process. I know that when I started working on the quality system when I was hired I put in 60+ hours every week. Now that we have our certification, and our system is starting to "even out", or mature, I work much less of the unpaid overtime. I would suspect that most of us are that way. Unless of course you are a total workaholic!

I put my normal schedule of activities on a timeline based on 40 hrs/wk.
My average work week is about 40 - 45 hrs.
