Recent findings from Randstad reveal that Portugal has a high percentage of employees working 49 hours or more per week, indicating a trend towards extended working hours.

This situation places Portugal in a comparative context with Greece, Cyprus, and France, which have even higher rates of long working hours.

The implications of such extended hours on workforce productivity and employee well-being warrant further examination, particularly in relation to infrastructure and operational capacity.
