2/ People in a 40 hours contract usually work more than that. Employers can try to seek out employees that don’t mind working more than paid for.
3/ People who’d look for 80% jobs are (from employers perspective adversely) selected to be people that will monitor their hours worked and not give away their time for free.

Anecdotally, from talking to people in the UK, it's the people who work 4 days a week who work over their hours more. Sometimes they end up working part of a day on what would be a day off, or they work more hours on their existing days to try and "keep up"
