2、 This should remind Britain’s employers just how much they depend on the good-will and voluntary extra work of their staff, the TUC says.

翻译为：这会提醒英国的雇主们自己是怎样依赖于怀着善意且自愿加班工作的员工。英国劳工联合会说到。
3、 And if it mades people and employers think a bit harder about organizing a better work-life balance, so much the better.

4、 It is often said that more business is done during social events than at the office.
注意的词语：is done 这里是被动语态。 生意当然是被做的咯。

5、 One person out of eight in labor force is said to be employed by a government unit on the state or local level. is that the case?
