This is perhaps the last vestige of the French art of living (along with brioche sausage).

Mistreated by Covid-19 and confinement, office life retains its importance in the eyes of Parisians, especially when compared to Europeans in other capitals.

This is what emerges from the 9th

Paris Workplace

barometer , carried out in partnership with Ifop among 3,700 employees in Paris, Berlin, London and Madrid on their relationship to the workplace.

Thus, Parisians are those, along with Berliners, who want to telecommute the least, on average 2.1 days a week when it rises to 2.4 days in London and 2.7 days for our Iberian friends.

And unsurprisingly, 62% of Ile-de-France residents want to work in the office when, in other capitals, we do not exceed 60%.

The Parisian likes to hang out at the table

As in other cities, in Paris, it is social life that gets us up in the morning to go to the office (46% of respondents), followed by the desire to be a full part of a team (38%) and to work together (37%).

On the other hand, and where our capital stands out, it is in the interpretation that is made of this social life.

In France, this involves lunch, where 67% of employees say they eat at a table with their colleagues, an average of 15 points more than in other capitals!

Consequently, the lunch break lengthens in Paris to reach 67 minutes against 57 minutes in Madrid, 52 minutes in London and 47 minutes in Berlin.



Speaking of more advanced social life, strangely, it is not Paris, capital of love, where employees confess the most to having had a relationship with one of their colleagues (29%).

It is indeed in Berlin where we are the hottest (33%) followed by London (32%).

On the other hand in Madrid, we are more on the hotel of the turned ass (26%).
