The U.S. is on the lower end of work-life balance among developed countries, Axios' Stef Kight reports.

By the numbers:

• On average, the Dutch work 353 hours fewer than Americans every year and almost 70% of Dutch women work (compared to the OECD average of 57%). This is up from 35% in the 1980s, although many women work only part time.
• Meanwhile, the U.S. — the only OECD country without a national paid parental leave policy — has seen female employment drop over the past 10 years, according to OECD.
• More than 16% of male workers in OECD countries work long hours — 50 or more per week — compared to only 8% of women. But women are also more likely to work part-time.
• Almost 26% of employed women in 2015 had part-time jobs, compared to only 9% of men.
