About this listen
Overtime has quietly become the glue holding the probation service together... but at what cost? In this episode, Napo’s Ian Lawrence and Ben Cockburn unpack the sheer scale of unpaid and paid overtime, the exploitation of staff goodwill, and the alarming strain on a service already pushed to breaking point.
We talk about fear, vacancy rates, burnout, and why so many members can’t finish their work — or afford to live — without doing extra hours. And crucially, we look at why withdrawing this free labour could be the most powerful step probation workers can take.
