Page missed #hrs worked, holidays/vacation days.
Actually just the general stress that you have to work hard your whole life just to get-to/stay in middle class. Maybe that is related to the inequality part.
- dragonsky 6y agoSo what is the average number of days holiday for an American full-time worker? Is anybody aware of any studies that compare hours worked per year against life expectancy? Is this valid: https://www.openaccessgovernment.org/long-working-hours-shorten-life-expectancy/71756/ https://www.openaccessgovernment.org/long-working-hours-shor...
- rweir 6y agosaved you a search: https://www.cnbc.com/2018/08/15/statista-how-far-behind-us-is-in-paid-time-off-compared-to-the-world.html https://www.cnbc.com/2018/08/15/statista-how-far-behind-us-i... . includes this depressing factoid, "American workers took an average of just over 17 days of vacation in 2017, the highest level in seven years".
