| description | This paper aims to analyse the concept of Heavy Work Investment (HWI) by studying the
factors determining this phenomenon, as well as its outcomes (both negative and positive).
According to the European Directive of 1993, Heavy Work Investment occurs when an
individual works more than 48 hours per week. The aim of this paper is to study the factors
influencing the occurrence of the phenomenon of Heavy Work Investment from the
perspective of time invested, using the multiple regression model, as well as the outcomes
of Heavy Work Investment, using the structural equation model (SEM). The study used the
data of the countries included in the International Social Survey Programme (ISSP), (37
countries and a total of 18,274 respondents) on employment status, the number of actual
working hours, job and demographic characteristics. The results confirm the important
impact of the cross-cultural differences on HWI behaviour as well as the outcomes of
Heavy Work Investment according to the type of investor (dispositional / situational). |
