How long is work week in Spain

Updated January 2024

The standard work week in Spain and Catalonia is typically 40 hours, spread over five days. This translates to an 8-hour working day.

However, kindly note that specific working hours can vary depending on the industry, occupation, and individual employment contracts. Spain, like many other countries, adheres to labor laws that set the maximum number of working hours, prescribe rest periods, and establish overtime regulations.

These laws are designed to protect the rights and well-being of workers.
