There's no such thing as a normalized workweek here in Switzerland. Most have 40-42h. The average are ~41h (edit: it seems that number is a few years old and it's now just shy of 40h - but it's too late in the evening to dig deeper). But yea, in certain jobs/industries, it can also be considerable more.

True it's not nkrmalised. That's my bad. All companies I met had more than 40h a week though. And even when I worked in a government owned company it was 42.5h
