A recent study found that tech and media workers are putting in more weekend hours than ever as mass layoffs lead to heavier workloads and remote work blurs the line between working and living. To find out just how many people are being pressured to work during their days off, in March 2023, ResumeBuilder.com surveyed 1,000 full-time remote and hybrid workers.

The results:

• 11 percent say their company requires them to work more than five days per week, every week, without providing additional time off
