DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:\n\nOverworked: Implications for a Shorter Workweek (joint with Laura Pilos
 soph and Anthony Swaminathan)\n\n\nAbstract:\nMore than two thirds of full-
 time workers in German and UK survey data are overworked---they would like 
 to reduce weekly hours at their current hourly wage. This holds across most
  worker and job characteristics and has been stable for decades. The costs 
 of these wedges are large, totaling around 1% of GDP, implying potentially 
 large gains from a shorter workweek. Simple willingness-to-pay calculations
  suggest an optimal length of the workweek in Germany of 33-36 hours. The g
 ains are largest for workers that are married, female, white-collar, mid-ag
 e, and those with children.\n
