Average Brit mum works 88 hours per week

A new research has revealed that the average British mother works almost 88 hours per week, including 27 hours' paid employment.

The research suggests that they only take 3.5 days off from family chores every year, the Mirror reported.

The research, by Parragon, questioned 2,000 mums in roles as cook, cleaner, handyman, personal assistant, childcare giver and taxi driver and found their annual earnings would be 31,216 pounds.

The sum includes a weekly wage of 111 pounds in childcare, 164 pounds in cleaning and 28 pounds as a taxi driver.
