How many hours are you working per week?

Post new topic

Julien

Let's find out difference between our working hours...

Here in the UK I should be working 40 hours a week + 4 extra hours ... actually I often work more than 45 hours per week.

Spain is a bit special because as people don't earn enough money with one job, they've often got several jobs ... so they work a lot!

In France we are between 35 and 39 hours per week.

How many hours are you working in your country?

I think the most important thing is not to spend 234 hours per week at work but to be efficient. Can people who work 50 hours a week be efficient?
