单选题The British work longer hours than anyone else in the European Union (EU), which may account for Britain's faster rate of economic growth in the past decade. But the European Commission wants to put a stop to it. In a recent report it notes disapprovingly that, "the UK is the only member state where weekly working time has increased over the last decade." The commission believes that British companies may be systematically violating the EU's "Working Time Directive". This demands that Europeans should work a maximum of 48 hours a week on average. Under the directive, workers can sign an "opt-out', agreeing to work more than 48 hours. Some 33% of British workers have signed such opt-outs, although only 16% are believed actually to be working more than 48 hours. Anna Diamantopoulou, the European commissioner for employment and social affairs, has a doubt about that. Firms in other European countries have not made much use of opt-outs. But, she thinks, some British bosses may be forcing workers to sign opt-outs as a condition of taking a job. (Some Americans may actually want to work more than 48 hours, but surely no European would be so silly, seems to her reasoning. ) Citing reasons ranging from "health and safety" to the need to maintain "minimum social standards" in the EU and to strike a better balance between work and family life, the commission is launching a "consultation of interested parties" on possible changes to the directive. The commissioner hopes that Britain will be able to come up with solutions on a voluntary basis. This sounds innocent enough. But, in reality, if it does not, the commission will probably devise a new directive. The commission is likely to push for tighter definitions of the conditions under which opt-outs can be used. This will inevitably reduce labour-market flexibility and may introduce yet more burdensome corporate form-filling and regulation. The British government claims to welcome the commission's review. Privately, however, it hopes that the appointment of a new commission next autumn will ensure that Mrs Diamantopoulou does not have enough time to revise the directive. She will certainly need to work long hours to get it done. Fortunately, being classified as a manager, at least she has an automatic opt-out from the Working Time Directive.

CHOOSE YOUR COMPANY WITH CARE{{/B}} Small is beautiful.
That, at least, is the conclusion of new research examining how satisfied
secretaries are in different sized firms. "We have found that people who
work for small or medium-sized companies work harder and are more committed,"
says Catrin Morgan, author of one of the latest studies in this field. "The
smaller the environment, the bigger the part you play as an individual, and the
more people notice your absence." This will come as a surprise
to many secretaries. Some recruitment agencies said that secretaries are keen to
get positions in the bigger companies. However, smaller companies can be more
flexible when it comes to working hours, and have better working conditions, but
working for smaller firms is not without its disadvantages. Career development
in the form of courses can be limited, but, on the other hand, employees often
feel that they can learn more on the job. In fact, opportunities
for promotion are the same whatever the size of the company. Morgan also says,
"Our research shows that in a company of fewer than 50 people, employers can
actually see what their employees are producing and then give them bonuses as
appropriate."
