Recenzje

Much discussion in this book is about extra, unpaid work which employers expect and do not always reward. These unpaid duties include workers who sleep in overnight at nursing homes, and the gig economy when people are kept on call waiting for work (both of which have led to litigation). This interesting subject affects us all, either as employers or employees.
