workers worked 31-35 hours per week.
In France, approximately half the workers worked for 31-35 hours per week. The percentage

figures for the rest of the working hours accounted for around 10% workers each.
Denmark and Sweden witnessed the highest proportion of people working for 36-40 hours,
which was quite different from that of France. The second and the third place came from 31-
35 hours and 41-45 hours workers (25% and 10% in Denmark; 35% and 30% in Sweden). The
proportion of people working for the remaining hours was higher in Denmark than in
Sweden.

maximum. Almost 50% worked 36-40 hours per week.
Overall, France was a country where the people worked for the least hours, where as the
Swedish people spent the most time on work among the people from four different
