Britain has historically taken hits at France in regards to them only working Monday through Thursday as opposed to a five-day work week. They boast about how they are blessed with a much more distinct level of work ethic, but new studies are showing otherwise. French employees actually get just as much done as the average British employee in a four day span as opposed to a typical work week. These studies are also showing a direct impact on British resident’s family and work balance as a result of them needing to work so many hours.
Key Takeaways:
- France only participates in four-day work weeks, while Britain participates in the typical five-day work week.
- Britain has been teasing France in terms of them not having as great work ethic, but studies have shown that this is not true.
- France actually gets just as much done within their four-day work week as Britain does in five days.
