That footnote seems to imply that the avg. hours worked per week calculation may not be very accurate. The linked PDF also doesn't mention if the hours reported are the contracted hours for the teacher or the total hours spent working including work at home and outside of school hours.
The ATUS asks about work done for pay (or for free if it's for a family-owned business), not work you do beyond the hours you actually get paid for.

False. http://www.bls.gov/news.release/atus.tn.htm http://www.bls.gov/news.release/atus.tn.htm [edit: can't reply to your reply, but: "This category includes time spent working, doing activities as part of one’s job, engaging in income-generating activities (not as part of one’s job), and job search activities. "Working" includes hours spent doing the specific tasks required of one’s main or other job, regardless of location or time of day. "Work-related activities" include activities that are not obviously work but are done as part of one’s job, such as having a business lunch or playing golf with clients." ]
- argv_empty 15y agoWhere in that document does it give this alternative definition for "for either pay or profit"? BTW, "These activities are those that persons 'are paid for or will be paid for.'" That does not describe unpaid hours.
