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.

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.

I voted 40 to 45. I work 40 hours per week and that is all that is expeted. If I see the need to work over, I will but luckily the need has not arisen. The organization that I work for now is very flexible about our hours as long as we get the job done.
The last organization that I worked for was totally opposite. I took work home with me almost everyday and was called in all hours of the day, night and weekend. I did get some comp time but it was never equal to the overtime that I put in.

In the "boom years" of our industry, and when it was appreciated, I was doing 50-55 hours per week, which was quite enough for me considering a 2 hour RT commute, a wife and kids, and the fact that I HATED working weekends, so I usually did it M-F. Now, 40 is it.
