- The table compares the distribution of working hours per week in 2014 according to the Structure of Earnings Survey (SES) from the German Statistical Office with those in the BeH after correction. To make the sample in the BeH as similar as possible to that in the official statistics, activities of households and extra-territorial organizations (T, U according to NACE Rev.2) are excluded. Working hours in the BeH have been adjusted to account for days of annual and sick leave, but exclude overtime adjustment. To reduce the effect of outliers, full-time excludes hours below 30 and above 50, part-time excludes hours below 3 and above 38 and marginal excludes hours above 18
