Answer: D) employees require additional training

Explanation: Overtime can be defined as the rate of pay, usually higher, for work done by employees or workers outside of or in addition to regular working hours. While employees who work overtime hours are motivated by the extra income to be had, there are some disadvantages that comes with it some of which include numerous mental, physical, and social effects such as stress, lack of free time, poor work-life balance, and health risks. They may require extra energy to perform at a normal rate and consciously or not, may pace themselves to ensure overtime. In time they may also become accustomed to the extra income thereby elevating their standard of living, however, it is unlikely that employees would require additional training in order to work or because they are working overtime.
