Abstract: This study is about the incidence of overtime hours in Finland. The investigation uses unique individual-level data from the manufacturing industries from 1989 to 1995. The results reveal that the hours of overtime divided by the number of total hours decline in age of an employee. The overtime hours also decline in wage per straight-time hours and in straight-time hours. Males and newcomers tend to work more overtime, but leavers work less overtime. In addition, the overtime hours are more frequent in the population of small establishments in the Finnish manufacturing industries. There are also strong industry effects.
