Americans are really hardworking, especially compared to these countries

Updated

With summer Fridays over and vacations to the lake winding down, Americans are getting back to work.

But don’t be fooled. Even in summer Americans still work harder than most other countries, according to a new survey of 2,000 Americans by NationalToday.com.

As in 137 hours more per year than Japanese workers and 260 more than in the UK.

If working long hours isn’t your thing, consider a move to France.

Americans are working 500 hours more per year than the French.

So we’re putting in more time at the office, but are we working or just on Facebook at the office?

According to the survey, Americans are 400% more productive today than they were in the 1950s.
