Happy Dutch workers
From today’s Radio Netherlands press review:
NRC Handelsblad reports that a new survey shows that the Dutch are the least stressed workers in Europe. Only 24 percent of Dutch people say their work is too demanding and stressful. In Lithuania, the figure is 71 percent. “The relative satisfaction of Dutch employees confirms another survey that revealed that the Dutch are the happiest people in the world”, writes the paper.
One of the reasons the Dutch are so pleased with their jobs, they say, is that they are constantly learning new things. The only thing Dutch employees are quite unhappy about is the lack of daycare for their children.
