A BBC news report on Malcolm Anderson, an accounting lecturer at Cardiff University Business School. He was implicitly being expected to do the jobs of two people.

The 80 hours, a week, is at the top end of the estimate, as it is stated that he was ‘regularly working 70 to 80 hours a week’. If Malcolm was working 70 hours a week that would equate to a wage of £14.29 per hour. The source is at https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wa...

Malcolm Anderson may have been working for more than 46 weeks per year as he ‘raised concerns that he was unable to take annual leave due to his workload in 2015, 2016 and 2017’. The line ‘research and any other administrative duties’ in the presentation is relevant. Apparently, he was ‘preparing for a day of lectures’ on the day he died. In other words, he was expected to be lecturing as well as do all the marking. The source is at https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-4...

Cardiff Business School is the business school of Cardiff University in Cardiff, Wales. It was created in its current form in 1987. Cardiff Business School currently serves 3,000 students a year, 700 of whom are postgraduate students. The school's research programme is Economic and Social Research Council recognised and has 140 PhD students currently studying within the school. Its research informs organisations such as the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, the United Nations, HM Treasury, the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills and the Department for Communities and Local Government and working on consultation projects for large global firms.

Economics is the oldest part of the business school, having been taught at Cardiff as part of the Political Science department and corresponding degree. The "Department of Economics and Political Science" was set up in 1903 with one lecturer, Henry Jevons who was made Professor in his final year 1911. From 1911 to 1946 the head of department was W.J Roberts. In 1922, he was joined by Stanley Parris. In 1946, Professor Brinley Thomas became head of the department and there followed an expansion with the subjects covered to include accounting. By 1962, there were seven lecturers in the department, and in 1972 Sir Bryan Hopkin became the second professor among 11 lecturers. In 1973, Professor Ken D. George became the head of the department. In 1988, because of the merger of UCC with University of Wales Institute of Science and Technology, the economics department at University College Cardiff moved into the recently created Cardiff Business School.
