Where in the United States do employees have the longest working weeks on average? San Francisco can just about claim the title as America's hardest working city - employees there put in an average weekly shift of 44 hours. However, when commuting is factored in, New Yorkers do have the longest working week of any city in the United States. Including commute, New York comes first with 49.08 hours per week, ahead of San Francisco's 48.58 hours.
Indeed, the battle to top the list of cities with the longest working week is a hard-fought one - the differences between the top-10 are marginal. Overall, the average working week for large American cities works out at 42.4 hours and this increases to 46.5 when commuting is included.
