I think most unit directors don't want to exploit their workforce. Most of them worked their way up the ranks over the decades and haven't forgotten what a dirty, uncomfortable job (and life) it can be. Pay and conditions will always be the bugbear of field archaeology on all levels. How many company directors, such as in the construction industry, are paid the pittance most unit directors are paid in the grand scale of things?
