How much is your unpaid overtime worth?

Written by ASU - Queensland Together branch | 9 November 2023

70% of workers in Australia are often working outside of their scheduled hours, and it’s increasing stress levels and burnout, as well as impacting time for family, friends, and self-care.

Have you ever thought about how much your unpaid overtime is costing you? We’ve created an Overtime Calculator to help you figure it out.

Give it a go here.

You can use the Unpaid Time Calculator to:

  • Know your worth: convert your unpaid hours into dollars and cents.
  • Find out the benchmarks: see how your overtime stacks up against the national average.
  • Be your own advocate: use the data to keep yourself accountable and push for a better work-life balance.

We're campaigning to make the right to disconnect a reality for all workers in Australia. This will bring life-changing balance to the working lives of people across the country, including the end to unpaid overtime!
