40 hours, 32 hours or even less? Working hours and work-life balance in Austria are being discussed time and again. The "Tiroler Krone" attended an event in Schwaz and listened in. Experts spoke about this polarizing topic. The audience was also invited to ask questions and discuss. 

The Knappensaal in the SZentrum in the silver city was filled almost to the last seat on Thursday. The Catholic Austrian student fraternity Frundsberg, which is celebrating its 125th anniversary next year, had invited guests to an event on a polarizing topic. "Chilling instead of hacking? Social suicide in installments?" could be read on posters throughout Schwaz in the run-up to the event.
