Work/life balance not working for accountants
Most in profession regularly working beyond contracted hours
Many accountants feel they are overworked and underpaid, with most working
past their normal hours on a regular basis, according to new research.
A study by online accounting software company e-conomic found that 86% of
those asked did more than their normal working hours regularly, with over half
doing so every day.
The company also found that 38% regularly work past 10pm and 22% of those
with children don’t make it home before bedtime.
Nearly two-thirds felt that remote home working could significantly improve
their work/life balance.
