The columns divide the workforce into those who face stress and those who are always on top of their jobs. The rows divide the workforce between those who like and dislike their jobs. The first set of entries shows the proportions of full timers who fall into these categories. The second set shows the proportion of part timers who fall into these categories. Nearly half the full time workforce enjoy their jobs but report that at times they cannot cope with the pressure of work.
Part timers are far less likely to complain of overwork.
But only one in six don t like their jobs. Significantly most people who don t like their jobs still say that they are always on top of their jobs. This suggests that people dislike jobs because they are boring or routine, rather than because they cannot cope. This pressure in the modern workplace is reflected in two main ways. First long hours and unpaid overtime and secondly stress.
