We have less than two hours.

We have less than three hours.

Fewer hours worked, longer vacations, and a declining population (since 2005) have, predictably, undermined Japanese growth.

The hike will take no less than eight hours.

We have less than three hours left.

It'll take at least three hours.

It's going to take at least three hours.

It would take at least three hours to do that.

It would take at least three hours to do that.

the number of hours worked in a normal week, i.e., with no vacation.

We have less than two hours until our plane leaves.

The lump of labor theory assumes that working longer and employing more people is the same thing.

We've got less than three hours to get this done.

I spend at least three hours a day doing that.

Siemens was the forerunner, going from 35 to 40 hours per week.

One alternative is to increase working hours without increasing salary per hours proportionally.

As the government s fiscal position has steadily weakened, the jobs have become far scarcer.

They found that of the 31 million German workers questioned, 30 want fewer (but pay adjusted) working hours, but that 26 want to work longer hours.

Right across much of the world North America being a notable exception working hours have been coming down.

Such measures, designed to create jobs by freeing up work hours, are futile at best, and are often detrimental.

I needed less than two hours and 250 denars to do this.

The increased tax burden for all who are employed is analogous to the reduced hours in work sharing.

For example, less than one third of workers in this period followed their traditional caste occupations.

Currently, the average number of hours worked per person aged 15 to 25 each year in France and Germany is about 50 lower than in the United States.

I need to sleep six hours or more per day to feel well.

The average number of working hours per person depends on a variety of factors

Thus, the total effect of the recession on labor income of jobs, hours and wage reductions is much larger.

Longer working time can be achieved nearly instantaneously, whereas employing more people is time consuming and expensive, as it typically requires new physical investment. Working longer is thus the ideal way to achieve growth and competitiveness.

But the relative decline in work hours is also due to trade unions' success in winning compulsory vacation time.

Working longer is thus the ideal way to achieve growth and competitiveness.

Europeans certainly need something to compensate for a short working life with many vacations.

It takes no less than three hours to walk around the whole village, exploring every nook and cranny.

Indeed, until the mid 1970's, the number of hours worked on either side of the Atlantic was roughly the same.

Not only does a higher percentage of American adults work, but they also work more hours per week and more weeks per year.

Americans work more hours per week and have less vacation time, but they have more money to spend.

This would lower the marginal productivity of hours worked sufficiently to offset the positive effects of increasing the number of hours per worker.

Abstract.

Some fear that extending the workday will not produce more jobs because the resulting expansion of hours worked will reduce the capital labor ratio.

Republican political operatives care far less about national savings than they do about manufacturing sector job losses.

In other words, they obtained shorter hours (i.e., more vacations) in order to keep employment up. The problem is that total compensation did not go down in proportion to the shorter hours, thus leading to an increase in pay per hour.

This is what German legislators concocted workers who have been with a firm for more than 6 months can demand reduced hours. (Remember, firing workers comes at an exorbitant cost and with extensive room for legal challenges.)

Working longer will boost economic growth, for if people work longer, then so does capital.
