NEW DELHI: While 69% of Indian workers surveyed by ADP Research Institute felt underpaid at least sometimes, the share was just 43% globally. Meanwhile, Indians remained dedicated to work, giving away 10 hours and 39 minutes of unpaid work time per week, the highest among the four countries covered in the Asia-Pacific region and much higher than the global average of just over eight hours.
ADP Research Institute is a workforce management solutions firm, and its survey, conducted online, covered over 32,000 workers across 17 countries in October and November 2022. The findings were released on Monday in a report titled ‘People at Work 2023: A Global Workforce View’.
The survey reflects how workers in India are feeling the pinch of the ever-increasing cost of living even as they grapple with what the report said was a “regular underpayment of wages".
