Between inflation and what many predict to be an impending recession, the U.S. economy does not make it easy to earn a living from an average 9-to-5 job — so employees are working even more to stay ahead.
Insuranks, a small business insurance marketplace, surveyed more than 1,000 adults, finding that as many as 93% claim to have a “side hustle,” or an added job alongside their full-time or part-time position. Notably, nearly 80% of those surveyed work full-time, but both full-time and part-time respondents found themselves devoting an average of 13 hours per week to their side hustle.
