The Australia Institute has produced new research on the economic impact of unpaid overtime. They’ve found Australians work more than 2 billion hours of unpaid overtime every year!

To encourage people to postpone all those “one last thing” tasks, emails and late meetings, and leave work on time for a change - the Australia Institute has worked with Make Believe to launch Go Home On Time Day 2009, November 25.

The simple and fun website lets visitors register for a “leave pass” and also invite hard-working friends & colleagues to also go home on time.

Complementing the site is a Facebook Fan page and advertising strategy.
