But how many hours? However, longer working hours are not reflected in the average pay.
Employees in Portugal work an average of four hours more per week than the European average.
The data comes from Pordata, which points out that while the European average is 31 hours a week, the average here is 35 hours a week.
The analysis is carried out by the Francisco Manuel dos Santos Foundation, which points out, however, that pay does not reflect this.
“Workers in Portugal work 4 more hours a week than the European average. But the average pay does not reflect this, being well below the EU27 average,” wrote those responsible in a post shared on the social network X (formerly Twitter).
