    UK : National Work your Proper Hours Day! union-network.org
    The Trade Union Congress (TUC) in the United Kingdom have set Friday February 27th as the day that all workers should work their proper hours. Research has found that the average person gives their employer extra hours every week. This has been added up and basically the average worker works for free for 40 days a year. The TUC says this results in lost income for the individuals as well as giving you added stress and fatigue which reduces productivity.
