PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ADP Publishes a New Edition of the HR Atlas "Europe at Work"
Invaluable indicators on European Work environment
Now that the benchmark has become a must-have instrument, the "Europe at
Work" Atlas is the invaluable tool for discovery and thought for
multinationals’ HR managers as well as managers of local companies who
want to compare their social and economic environment with that of other
countries in Europe in terms of legislation, training, labor costs and
productivity.
In addition to data from Hungary, which this
issue presents for the first time, the new edition of the "Europe at
Work" Atlas has some surprises in store for its readers, among them:
• In Lithuania, the employment rate of women is higher than that of men
•
In the Netherlands, 75 % of women in the workforce work part time
•
Italy is the country with the largest number of companies
• In
Bulgaria, the hourly cost of labor is 2.42 €
• In Denmark, the
hourly cost is 34.82 €
• For the European worker, the average work
week is 40.5 hours
• Germany, the U.K. and France account for 45 %
of employees in Europe.
To produce this Atlas, ADP, which
provides services for companies in 70 countries around the world, has
combined its own international expertise in the domain of human
resources with a wealth of data delivered by many organizations,
including Eurostat and the OECD.
First published in 2006, the "Europe at Work" Atlas is updated each year in an interactive version on ADP’s internet site (www.atlas.adp.com). A paper-based version of the new edition is also available.
