If you work to live rather than the other way around, a jaunt1 across the Channel could be a wise career move.
 
如果你是为了生活而工作,而不是为了工作而生活,那么越过英吉利海峡吧,也许你为职业发展迈出了明智的一步。
 
French people worked the fewest hours last year, with staffers in Paris clocking up 1,604 hours in 2015 followed by Lyonnaise employees with 1,631 hours, according to a survey by UBS.
 
Spread out across the entire year, that means Parisians worked an average of 30 hours and 50 minutes every week, slightly less than the 31 hours and 22 minutes worked in Lyon.
 
Of the 71 cities included in the UBS survey - which measures the average annual working hours, including paid vacation and bank holidays, using a basket of 14 professions - European locations account for the top 18 cities that work the fewest hours each year.
 
London ranks 17th, with its residents2 toiling3 away for 1,740 hours last year, or around 33 and a half hours per week.
 
Residents of New York, Beijing and Tokyo are more attached to their jobs, working for 35.5 hours, 37.7 hours and 39.5 hours respectively4 each week.
 
But the busiest bees are in Hong Kong, where the work week stretches to just over 50 hours, meaning Hong Kongers are working for 38pc longer than the global average, 50pc more than Londoners and 62pc longer than Parisians.
