Interesting, I only work 4 hours a week and it’s made a huge difference in the quality of my life. It’s just super early so I get annoyed in the mornings, but really it’s been great overall.

idk, it said it was 20hrs for women :confused: what does that say???

Yeah, that’s interesting.

While the mental health benefits of employment peaked at eight hours of work, the relationship between working hours and life satisfaction was slightly different.

Self-reported life satisfaction in men increased by a third with up to eight hours of paid work per week, but women didn’t report a similar increase in life satisfaction until their working week reached 20 hours.
