According to Eurostat, only 6% of Romanian employees work over 45 hours a week, placing Romania among the last in the European Union, alongside Latvians and Bulgarians. In contrast, Greeks lead the ranking, with 20% of employees working beyond the standard 8 hours a day, partly due to the introduction of a six-day work week. Experts suggest that official statistics do not reflect the entire reality of overtime work, including undeclared work, which is not reported.
