![]() |
In France there is a debate about work time and competitiveness. There are a lot of political and economic critics against the 35 hour-week, which may destroy the competitiveness of French companies. But are the French employees working enough? The Dutch have a very short working week of 30 hours per week on average. The reason? Partial time is widespread with more than one employee in two in the country working part-time. France2 reporter Magali Boissin visits the Netherlands to make a portrait of a part-time employee working at job site company Monsterboard and of Yorrick a part-time salesman of a clothing company that would love to work full time, but does not get the possibility because he becomes too expensive for the employer.
