' Page 16 • The Dally Seotlnel OK, laugh: but study finds reduction in work week . By STEPHANIE ARMO~ USA Today You hear it all the time: Evervone i~ .yorking too much. · . Our jobs demand more than we can give. There's never enough time. ~e,'re headed for a cataclysmic burnout. Those are the gripes from factory floors to executive suites in the stressed-out, downsized, lean-andmean '90s. But here 's a jarring fact: U.S. workers actually are working less each week than our parents and grandparents did. The average time worked across all industries is 39.5 · hours a week, down from 42.8 hours in 1948, the Department of Labor says. The low point was 38 hours in 1982. "The average work week contin· ue• to decline," says Ken Deavers. chief economist at the Employment Policy Foundation. Of course, the moment you say that, people "look at you like you're from Mars," Deavers admits. The work week ligures are based on surveys of about 50,000 households, and some suspect they are, if anything, too high. John Robinson, a University of Maryland sociology professor, has done time-diary studies that show people tend to overes· timate how much they work. ''I'm sorry to report things are not so bad," says Robinson, co-author of "Time for Life," a book on how Americans use their time. And research by the University of Michigan shows that leisure time actually is increasing - in part because of early retirement, less time spent on housework and shorter wmk weeks. So why do many workers, feel so stressed? "It ·seems like you work, work, -work," says chemist Michael Abiodun, of Troy, Mich. "I take my work with me when I'm going home. If I can't get the project done during the day, I think about it." Some people, of course, are working more than the national average. Toiling 50 hours a week is not uncommon, especially among executives in financial services, manufacturing and technology. In fact, the share of workers toiling 49 hours or more has roughly doubled since !976 to just under 20 percent. , But overall, time at work has dropped since the 1940s. Analysts say fewer people work in farming, with --its sunup-to-sundown schedule. While more women have entered the work force, some tend to put in few• er hours than men - driving the weekly average down. Experts also point to a rise in service jobs with iimited hours. And cost-cutting companies have become more vigilant about limiting long hours. The decrease in hours hits all industries, the Labor Department reports. Yet many people complain about work-related stress. The reason ma: be dual-career families , new technology and a faster work pace not a longer workweek. Consider Kathy Smith. The 48year-old administrative assistant works about 40 hours a week. roughly I 0 hours less than her father did . But she Is also raising two boys with a husband who also works. It's a change from when she was young and her mother stayed home. "We all appreciated when we grew up that my mom could be there when we needed her," says Smith, of Erlanger, Ky. "!feel I'm cheating my kids." Technology a culprit And, in an ironic twist. many point to technology as one reason we're feeling worse instead of better. They blame our stress on: • More technology in the workplace. E-mail, voice mail, faxes and phones have workers strugg ling to get the job done. There's no time anymore just to think . "Technology is supposed to rrtake it easier, but you're still working so hard." says Abiodun. 43. "I get interrupted and I forget what I'm working on." • Technology making work more access ible. Desperate for a quiet moment, we're using technology to do work away from the office. A 1997 survey by Steelcase, wh ich makes office furniture, found a third of respondents take work home at least once a week. "I break out in a cold sweat if I don't have access to my e-mail," says Edward Melia. managing director of SHL CyberQuest, a Boston Internet recruiting consulting firm. " I don't get a break." Even on a Caribbean vacation, he brought along hi s laptop computers. While the average time worked is based on self-reported hours. many workers may not count the time they are at home but in contact with work via e-mail, laptops and pagers. • Employers asking for more. While technology is leaving us besieged, we're also working at a faster pace because employers demand it. Corporate cutbacks have left fewer employees trying to do more jobs. It's even got a name: multitaski ng. "There are times I get home and have barely enough energy to watch television," says Linda Ladwig. 32, who handles phones, custome" and photocopying at Office Depot in Green Bay. Wis. "It's exhausting." Pursuit of the good life Financially, many families have no choice but to devote more resources to work. But in some cases, it's the elusive good life - two cars, exotic vacations, private schools- that propels many to work more. High debt also keeps many trapped. · Only 25 percent of employees at Baxter International, a medical products and service company, are willing Thursday, March 26, 1998 Pomeroy • Middleport, Ohio Timely trimming ' Penn State falls to Minn. in NIT finals Pick 3: 1.0-6 Pick 4: 4-6-4-8 Buckeye.5: 5-31-34-35-36 SportS' on Page 4 to slow their career and salary advancement Ia gel the time allocation they want between work and personal life, according to a company survey of more than 1.000 employ- • ees. a1 At the same time. some work because of an inner hunger to succeed.

"For me, I thin k it' s part of the general Midwestern wonh ethic," Chri.1tian says, his voice coming in ragged gasps as he works the exercise machine. "I get the chore done and there's two or three more to do." Corporate cutbacks have also caused job insecurity. Working hard is sel f-preservation . Connie Lembo puts in overtime because her job demands it. Because she often works more than 80 hours a week. she stays at a hotel instead of driving the hour home. Even sleep can feel like a luxury. " It 's fru strating. it's tiring, and you miss the family," says Lembo, an executive a>si stanl for Public Service Electric & Gas in Newark. N.J. Hints of those de1nands can be found in Labor Department slati•tics. Si nce 1982, the average number of hours worked eac h week has edged up. And hours worked each year also are up, driven in part by more women . toiling more weeks in the year.

After-tax corporate profits slipped · 2.3 percent in the fourth quarter, to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $483.7 billion, the Commerce Department said today: . 111e repon, a revision of previous estimates of the gross domestic product, contained the department's first look at profits in the fourth quarter. The drop was the worst since the first three months of 1994 and the first since the July-October period of 1996. The report didn't seem to trouble Wall Street too much since the companies surveyed had already_reported their results individually. By early afternoon, the Dow Jones industrial average was down 38 points, adding to Wednesday's 32-point drop. It occurred even though the economy overall g(!:w at a brisk 3.7 percent annuli! pace. Though not quite as strong as the 3.9 percent estimated a month ago, that still is considered robust. For the year as a whole, the increase in after-tax corporate profit' -up 7.3 percent to $480.3 billion· outpaced the 3.8 percent increase in ~he economy's total output of goods and services. The fourth quarter decline may prove a harbinger of profit trends this y~ar. Economists fear the exceptionally strong corporate profits, which have fueled the stock boom on Wall Street, may be coming to an end. Faced with shortages of qualified workers - a result of the" 'lowest unemployment ,rate in 24 yeai. many employe" have bee'n forced to raise wages. In many industrie~. they haven't been able to raise the prices of their products. If they did, they'd lose sales to Asian goods, which are less expensive thanks to sharp currency devaluations in the region. The result is a classic sq ueeze on profits that can be overcome only by rapid increases in productivity. Analysts believe businesses will be hardpressed to match the healthy productivity gains of the past two years, largely because the workers left to hire have fewer skills and less education and would thus probably be not be a.' efficient as workers already on the payroll. Despite that (hinking. the stock market ha.~ charged ahead this year, with the Dow Jones industrial average advancing 12 percent to record highs. The Commerce Department .said its slight revision of GOP reflected a decrease in the previous estimate of consu mer spending on hospital •ervices and natural gas. That moro than offset an upward revision in business .spending on aircrJft. According to today's report, fourth -quarter consumer spending advanced at a moderate 2.5 percent rate. A big 9.1 percent rate advance in housing construction helped make up for a rare 0.8 percent rate decline in investment by business in new equ ipment and buildings. Gov.ernmenl spending advanced slightly. Export sal~s and a buildup of business inventories also contributed to growth. Even with the fourth-quarter adjustment, last year's overall growth of 3.8 percenr still was the strongest in nine years. Economist< are pre dicting moderate growth of around · 2. 7 percent this year. They expect the decline becau•e they're looking for the Asian financial cri•is to •lash U.S. export sales . to the region and bring a flood of cheap Asian goods into the United States. So far lower intere•l · rates and lower oil prices stemming from the crisis have seemed to help the U.S. economy more than the deteriorating trade balance has hurt it. In a sign of the health. the Labor Department said today that new application·s for unemployment benefits totaled 313,000 last week . Though up by 4,000 from the previous week. the total still was at a level signaling a strong demand for labor.

Such is the case with Nelson Mandela. who counts Moammar Gadhafi of Libya and Fidel Castro of Cuba among his friends -a loyalty based on the support they g~ve during the 27 years Mandela languished in prison for opposing South Africa's apanheid regime. When Castro first reached out to Mandela, President Clinton was still a child. Clinton, cognizant that the United States cannot veto Mandela 's friends, ; is approaching his own budding alliance with full recognition that the South African president is a leader on h1s own terms and, by VIrtue of his ac11v1sm and imprisonment, a worldwide hero not to be taken lightly.

My trusty steed, of course, wasn't a h orse-it ' ~ been years since I owned one and it was really a bit early in the day to do the sunset bit since the sun wa's prcll y high in the sky. I had to usc my car. However, do all ow me the privilege of bei ng a hit dramatic. The ride into the sunset was the fin ale of over nine years of employment at Veterans Memorial Hospital in Pomeroy. Not a natural at be ing a couch potato. I fou nd the first week of my retirement from the world of ncwsp.apcring way back in 1989 to be a drag. So. to keep active. I went to work at Veterans Mcmonal Hospit al and at the time thought I probabl y would hang on there six or seven 'months. Well , that was over mnc years ago. My employment at the hospital has been a deli ght. I cnme into contact with many wonderful , caring people and hopefull y, made a few new friend s al ong the way.
