From night overtime to leisure time. How much time do people in different parts of the world devote to their work per week and year?

Where and why do people have difficulties finding access to work? What social limits or freedoms are associated with the various working time and leisure models? What do these say about work-life balance? Under what conditions do people work efficiently? And how happy are people with their work and their lives in this respect? Hunter-gatherers, such as the Khoisan in the Kalahari, work (gather and hunt) an average of 15 hours a week to earn a living. This leaves them plenty of time for other activities (leisure). In contrast, until 2018 it was common for South Koreans to work up to 68 hours a week. For many, the working day ran into the night. However, an OECD study found that people did not work as efficiently as in countries with shorter working hours. The country also reduced the maximum permitted working hours per week to 52 hours due to other social factors. Reducing working hours is increasingly on everyone's lips worldwide in view of new technological developments. Where are societies heading on these issues? And what can intersectional perspectives contribute to this debate? In a retreat-like setting, we would like to invite visitors to reflect on work, time and life. Interactive moments and impulses that casually invite creative activity are intended to help shape this space and promote dialogue.
