Nearly half of London workers fail to take their full holiday entitlement, a survey suggests.
The figure — 44 per cent — is far higher than any other region with almost a third saying they were too busy or feared losing their job.
In the survey of 1,500 people by Nuffield Health’s Canary Wharf medical centre, opening today,
51 per cent admitted feeling less tolerant with their family since the economic downturn began. Almost a third (29 per cent) argued more.
Almost half (46 per cent) have increased unpaid overtime with 12 per cent working an extra eight to 20 hours a week.
To cope with work stress, 22 per cent have used alcohol. Only a third went to a gym or exercised outdoors.
