It's not work time in the sense that you will be paid for it though, which is usually the metric people use. Unless I am missing something.

- nprateem 8y agoTrue, but then a lot of people in permanent jobs don't get paid extra for overtime anyway. I mean it more from the perspective of how much of your day you're "on", and that leisure/other activities aren't necessarily mutually exclusive to thinking about work related tasks, which can make you more productive during your usual paid hours.
- krageon 8y ago> True, but then a lot of people in permanent jobs don't get paid extra for overtime anyway. Can you specify what countr(y|ies) this applies to? It is most certainly not the case where I am. > I mean it more from the perspective of how much of your day you're "on" I'm firmly of the belief that if you spend a lot of your leisure time thinking about work, perhaps you have an unhealthy work/life balance. You are of course correct that it is possible to still do so. I don't agree with the point that this should be counted or even is work time. It is free time you have sacrificed to your job, without compensation. Work with no compensation doesn't satisfy the conditions for what I consider to be employment.
