Including both full- and part time work in the same statistic is always iffy IMO, especially if you restrict it to the main job (i.e. people who work several part time jobs might work more overall than full time workers with one job).
On top of that, these numbers should always be taken with a grain of salt due to undocumented overtime.
Nah, undocumented overtime is a thing in germany, too, for example. Most jobs, especially in smaller businesses have what’s called “Vertrauensarbeitszeit”(trust based timekeeping). You don’t punch in anywhere, you just show up at the job, and are expected to manage your own time. Studies found that this leads to people working approx. 42-43h/week instead of the contractually agreed-upon 40h/week, with the difference not being paid, since it is undocumented. The EU/ECJ declared this to be a problem and now all businesses have to implement some form of electronic timekeeping.
Why is turkey considered european?
Also technically Turkey is an EU candidate
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accession_of_Turkey_to_the_European_Union
Though they kinda stopped being a real candidate 10+ years ago.
But 20 years ago, Turkey was the most prominent EU candidate and could eventually legitimately join the EU. Greece was one of the biggest proponents of Turkey joining the EU. Turkey was led by a promising young man, a moderate muslim, who could compromise islam with secularism. His name was Erdogan.
This seems a rather generous characterisation. He might have been more sensible in his economics earlier on, but he has always been a hardcore Islamist. Before he got into national politics was imprisoned during his term as Istanbul’s Mayor for “inciting racial hatred”, and his party deregistered for being too extreme in its opposition to secularism.
I just love the disrespect against UK.
Not since 2016 but since 2020
Anyway they included Switzerland so it indeed is disrespect (or lack of cooperation)
There appears to be an inverse relationship between the working week and distance from the Netherlands. Probably average height and love of cycling, too.
Well… For the countries I know if it’s completely wrong.
Mixing part time and full time duration makes NO sense whatsoever.
