The given two tables indicate the average amount of time which both full-time and part-time employees worked in three distinctive European nations in the year of 2002 compared to the average number of hours dedicated to jobs of European citizens.
Overall, the tables point out that men, regardless of their types of jobs, usually spent more hours working than women. The Greek employees appeared to be the most career-devoted ones while UK citizens enjoyed shorter working time.
The longest working time was observed in Greece where female workers worked 39.9 hours on an average, around 2.6 hours less than their male counterparts. This amount was noticeably higher than the European average figure of 39.2 hours for females and 40.4 hours for males, in contrast to the other two nations with shorter working time. Dutch women and men allocated an equal amount of time — 38 hours – for work, 1 hour and 1.5 hours longer than their UK counterparts.
With regard to part-time jobs, citizens in the three listed nations devoted smaller and comparable amounts of time to their career compared to the European average. The Greek stilled worked hardest, with 29.3 hours spent by women and 30 hours by men, slightly longer than the figures for UK citizens. It is interesting that only in the Netherlands were females more committed to their part-time jobs (with 29.2 hours) than their male counterparts with less than one hour in difference.
