Germany's high female labor force participation rate leads to lower average working hours; two men working 10 hours each vs. two men and a woman working 10 and 4 hours results in different averages.
OECD figures don't indicate less work in Germany; including women working part-time adds to the overall work being done, rather than skewing the data.
77% of German women are employed, a significant increase over thirty years, but many work part-time due to a shortage of child-care facilities.
