Stop working so much, Cyprus!

On this island, our professional and personal lives aren’t distinct

Did you know that Cyprus works amongst the longest hours of any country in Europe?

According to the latest Eurostat figures, about 17 per cent of employed Cypriots work in excess of 45 hours per week. Nine hours or more per day!

It’s way higher than the EU average of roughly 11 per cent. And the second highest rate in the EU: Greece pips us to the number one spot, with 21 hours per week.

Those numbers don’t just describe long days.
