Countries where people work the least
In fact, a very heavy working day and without many benefits threatens the productivity of any sector. Every professional who works lightly and comfortably is capable of delivering good results. No wonder, several countries adopt a very satisfactory working day and tend to be quite generous in the distribution of hours of the working day. See what they are now:
1. Finland
The Nordic country is the dream of many professionals, especially those in technology. On average, people in this country work for 36.3 hours a week.
2. France
In France, workers have a very satisfactory working week: 36.1 hours.
3. Sweden
Second Nordic country on the list, Sweden has a workload of 36 hours per week.
4. Australia
Coming in as the only non-European on the list and the only representative of Oceania, Australia has a weekly average of 35.9 hours.
5. Ireland
In Ireland, workers have just 35.6 hours a week to fulfill their obligations.
6. Italy, Belgium and Austria
With the same workload of 35.5 hours per week, these three nations are great options for those who want to have a more relaxed workday.
7. Switzerland
The 34.6 hours per week established by the country make it appear in the top 5 of the list.
8. Germany
Representing Western Europe very well, Germany has a workday of 34.4 hours.
9. Norway
Norwegian workers are certainly happy with a workload of 33.6 hours.
10. Denmark
