Average number of work weeks per year is?

i know that there are 48 - 50 working weeks per year.




Correction (at least in Australia) - there are 52 working weeks per year.
Standard industrial relation laws in Australia at least mandate that workers can enjoy 4 weeks paid annual leave per year taken either during periods set by the company or at their convenience, leaving most people working only 48 of the 52 working weeks.


This is important to note due to salary calculations as annual salary relates to the full 52 working weeks per year. (ie: If you get paid a total salary of $52,000 per year your hourly rate would be $52,000 / 52 weeks = $1,000 per week / 38 hours per week = $26.32 per hour)
