Workers seek second jobs, says expert

Article Category: Debt Consolidation Help and Advice

Thousands of UK employees are seeking second jobs in order to cope with the effects of the rising cost of living, it has been reported.

PeoplePerHour.com revealed a rise of more than one third (35 per cent) in the number of full-time workers registering their freelance services in order to raise extra cash, according to Personnel Today.

Xenios Thrasyvoulou, the website’s founder, told the publication the current economic conditions are contributing immeasurably to workers looking for extra work.

"Skilled professionals are struggling to make ends meet. It’s little wonder increasing numbers of them are harnessing their experience and skills to offer freelance services outside office hours," he added.

Meanwhile, the nation’s bad debt looks set to continue as more borrowers fall behind with repayments according to HBOS.

The lenders chief, Andy Hornby, warned nearly 30,000 of the firm’s customers are at least three months behind with mortgage payments and are at risk from having their homes repossessed.
