Working Hours and Job Sharing in the EU and USA: Are Europeans Lazy? Or Americans Crazy? - Fondazione Rodolfo Debendetti Reports
Boeri
Why do Europeans work so little compared to Americans? Can they be induced to work more without reducing labour productivity? If so, how? This volume explores these questions and many more in order to understand the changing nature of the hours worked in the USA and EU, as well as the effects of policies that impose working hour restrictions.
