Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Health service chief executives often work a 12-hour day and most find their job stimulating and enjoyable, a report said yesterday.
A survey of nearly 1,700 senior health managers showed that chief executives worked an average of 57 hours a week, with more than half exceeding 60 hours.
The report from the NHS Confederation, which represents NHS trusts and health authorities, said 81 per cent of managers found their work enjoyable, despite the fact that 72 per cent found aspects of their job stressful.
