The common work week is 40 hours long in Russia, and strict overtime laws mean few workers go beyond 50 hours.
Meanwhile, Russian labor laws grant all workers 28 days of paid vacation, in addition to public holidays.
That said, the average Russian worker still puts in 200 more work hours each year than an American, mainly because part-time work is rare. Only about 5% of employees work part time.
