The bar chart compares Australian men and women in terms of the amount of weekly time they spent working. Overall, while the proportion of women working short hours was higher than their male counterparts, the reverse was true for longer hours, with the exception of the category of 80+ working hours, where both genders showed equal figures. Notably, the figure for working 30-50 hours was the highest among both men and women.
Considerably higher proportions of Australian men worked 30-50 hours in a week than women, roughly 43% as opposed to 35%. Similarly, men spending 60-80 hours on work accounted for 30%, which was higher than that of women by a margin of approximately 12%. By contrast, equal percentages of males and females allocated 80 hours or more to working on a weekly basis.
In stark contrast, shorter working hours were more popular among women. The figure for women working up to 10 hours stood at 15%, which was three times as high as that for the opposite gender. However, the discrepancy in the category of 10-20 hours was narrower, around 23% for women that was approximately double that of men, at nearly 12%.
