Small firm staff 'more flexible'

Employees working at smaller firms are more likely to adapt their working week to try and help their firms survive the recession, according to research conducted by Orange.

The research revealed that over 65% of staff in companies with under ten employees are prepared to reduce their hours, put in extra unpaid time or accept a pay cut to help their employer in the economic downturn.

In businesses that have a workforce of over 1,000 the amount of staff prepared to make these sacrifices dropped below 40%.
