Women work longer hours
than men
MATTHEW HICKLEY, Daily Mail
Women are working longer hours while men are putting in less
time for their money.
And yet the pay gap between the sexes has widened, research
revealed yesterday.
A nationwide survey of 1,600 employees found that women
now work almost 34 hours a week on average half a day
longer than the figure of 30.4 hours five years ago.
According to the Chartered Institute of Personnel and
Development (CIPD) which carried out the research, the shift
reflects the growing number of women in more demanding
management roles and professional jobs.
Over the same five-year period, men's average work hours fell
from 45.5 hours per week to 44.8 hours, although among the
males the number putting in more than 49
hours a week has passed the three million mark.
