Asians live to work
Why do you think they have such a problem with suicide?
Greece is an exception too
i'm too lazy to do the math right now, but i'm surprised there isn't a more pronounced vertical convergence around the line that should correlate with the 5/7 working week
which would be around 1900 hours
working hours have nothing to do with suicide, and actually the WHO European region is the one with the highest suicide rate
What about Japan though.
>germany at the bottom
?
germans are lazy
a lot of german gdp comes from industry. penetration of robots in the industry is high. thereby man hours are cut on average and gdp per capita raises. plausible?
Work hours are extremely under-reported.
no
their women just dont work
no
>Work hours are extremely under-reported.
This is not a problem specific to Japan, and anyways the figure already includes things like paid and unpaid overtime, vacations, parental leave, etc.
I know that in Singapore the ones getting fucked are the "non-residents" (i.e. people without Singaporean citizenship and immigrants without "Permanent residence") but what about Hong Kong? maybe it's in a similar situation where Mainlanders are the one pulling the average up with shit jobs?
Good lord i want to move to norway
In Hong Kong you basically have to work for live to pay the rent of a tiny apartment

idk man, if we look at the chart it's annual ~2250 hours which translates to 187.5 hours monthly. that's perhaps an extra day or an extra hour thrown in over-time. i'm making the assumption here that the normal work week is 160 hours. it might not and i might be full of it. at any rate, i'd imagine that is normal for asian countries based on hearsay and that the low end jobs where you'd have to put in a lot of extra hours to make ends meet the workload would be more in the 200+ range monthly
mmm this actually makes some sense and to an extend also explains Singapore situation, where "residents" get goverment subsidies and grants in order to own HDB flats
