BALTIMORE, MD—With Americans working an average of over 1,800 hours per year and having left 55% of their PTO unused last year, the personal-finance website WalletHub this week released its report on 2023’s Hardest-Working States in America.
Maryland came in at No. 11 on this year’s list. North Dakota topped the list with Alaska ranking at No. 2.
In order to determine where Americans work the hardest, WalletHub compared the 50 states across ten key metrics. The data set ranges from average workweek hours to share of workers with multiple jobs to annual volunteer hours per resident.
