Study Links Poor Public Services to Shorter Work Hours

A new study shows why some people in Denmark want to work less. The Rockwool Foundation published this research. People who dislike local public services often want shorter work hours. They also prefer to pay lower taxes.

The study highlights primary education and eldercare as main areas of concern. When these services feel weak, people see less value in high taxes. As a result, they choose to work fewer hours instead.

This trend helps foreign workers understand local labor choices. It shows how public service quality affects work decisions in Denmark.
