13. Indians work 8.10 hours every day at an average.
 
 
 
 
 Indians work for 486 minutes, or 8.1 hours,  every day, more than the average figure for the entire developed world  and individual countries like the United Kingdom, Australia, France,  Italy and Germany, according to a survey by conducted by Organisation  for Economic Co-operation and Development, an international grouping of  the world's top developed nations.
 
 However, the average  work-hour for Indians is less than the same for people in countries like  the United States, China and Japan, while those in Mexico are the  busiest in the world, a new global survey has found.
