Culture Note

 

The average American works over 45 hours per week at a full-time job and gets about two weeks of vacation per year, including holidays. In Western Europe, however, the number of working hours per week is fewer and people have more leisure time. People in France work approximately 28% fewer hours per person than Americans, and the Germans work about 25% less time than the Americans. World surveys show that employees in Asian cities work the highest number of hours per week.
