Work vs. Sleep...

Information is a little bit dated....but interesting findings: working longer hours doesn't necessarily result in increased productivity.

Methodology

Productivity is calculated by dividing each country's GDP by the average number of hours worked annually by all employed citizens. Hours worked include full-time and part-time workers, excluding holidays and vacation time.

Expand

Working longer hours cannot increase productivity, because the amount paid out to labour (access to the means of subsistence is the same in either case) while any increase is appropriated by capital.
