I don’t think that’s uniquely american, though…?
In fact many countries including China and Mexico have more hours worked on average.

Surprised to see Japan at ~40

Its probably debatable how accurate it is but as for Japan it makes sense as an Average if a lot of people work part time or very little while other work a lot more.
I remember a demographic study a few years back about qol negative correlation with average workweek and one of the top hours worked was over singapore 70.

It’s the salarymen that work themselves to death. There are specific companies that have horrendous work culture, and many others that do not.

Work themselves to death doing fake work because looking busy is more important than being productive.
