A Serbian worker works longer than a European worker - even that is not enough for Vučić

This year, Serbia is at the top of Europe for the number of hours spent at work in one week. The working week in Serbia lasts 41,3 hours, while in the European Union a maximum of 36 hours are worked per week. This is why workers in Serbia work more than workers in Europe
