摘要：Overtime is common in business. Companies use it to respond to excess demand without increasing the number of employees. Employees do it as a means of increasing their income. It contributes to communities by increasing disposable income. However, it can become an addiction as companies, employees and communities come to depend on it as a part of their subsistence instead of a temporary benefit. This paper explains this problem and offers specific suggestions for managers who want to cure or prevent overtime addiction.
