U.S. workers most productive overall?

After spending a lot of time traveling in Japan I had the misconception that they where a productive lot. Well they work a lot of hours but I don’t think there that productive. But I am surprised to see Americans are the most productive of all in a recent study. I must have had my head in the sand because I am actually very surprised. [CNN]

    wrong way to look at the stats – the key is how productive you are for each hour you are at work – and that means that even the FRENCH (oh no!) are better than the Americans


    “…Norwegians lead the world with an output of $38 per hour worked last year. French workers were in second place, averaging $35 an hour, the report said. Belgians were third at $34, followed by Americans at $32….”
