Many people say that they are working too many hours. They don’t have enough time to play or to stay with their family.

Work hours are different from one country to another. In France, people spend about 1,646 hours a year at work. In Japan, people work about 2,159 hours a year. A Japanese works longer than a French worker.

Why do people work so many hours? Some people work extra hours because they want to have more money. but many companies(公司) don’t pay(付钱) overtime(加班). Their workers dont’ get more money for more work. Some people think they should work more hours. Some think that they will lose(失去) their jobs if they don’t work more hours.

Many people say that their holidays are too short. In France , people get five weeks of paid vacation(带薪休假) a year. In Germany, they get four to six weeks, and in the United States, two weeks. But less than 50% of the workers use all the holiday days. In the UK, there is a saying(谚语), “All work and no play makes Jack a dull(迟钝的) boy.” If that is true, there must be a lot of dull people in the world.
