The charts demonstrate how many hours women and men worked at part-time and full-time jobs across three nations in 2002 and compare them with average hours of the European workers.
Overall, men dominated throughout all given categories, except for the employees in Nethelands and the standard part-timers in Europe.
In detail, while it is clear that discrepancies in hours among the two genders are insignificant, the majority of temporary and permanent positions are ocuppied by male labourers. The highest difference in hours among full-time workers can be observed in Greece. The weekly average for women was 39.9 hours, whilst it was 42.5 hours for men. Interestingly, the amount of work time for both sexes in permanent job positions in Newtheland were equal in 2002, at 28 hours.
Similarly, the part-time female employees in Newtheland showed higher working hours than men accounting for 29.2 and 28.3, respectively. Another striking thing is that the European average demostrated that women worked more than men, surpassing them by 2 hours.
In terms of full-timers and part-timers in Greece and UK, the figures remained the same, with men working more hours.
