THE VALUE OFAN HOUR OFWORK

Everybody might be working for the weekend, but we're also working toward growing our countries' economies.. Each hour we work contributes to the gross domestic product. But how much? This is a look at the GDP per capita of the countries in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Develop-ment, compared to the average numbers of hours worked in each country. While we may be working hard in America, in Luxembourg, an hour of work really means something.
