New Zealand & Australia having a higher percentage of people working 50+ hour weeks over the US seems unintuitive.

Update - Getting downvoted, so here's explanation:

This doesn't align with the culture over there at all. I think this source is questionable.

For example, if you compare the average hours worked per worker over a year (descending), the U.S. is #18 with 1,789 hours while Australia is much lower at #27 with 1,664 hours [1].
