Some other countries if somebody is curious:

  • Brazil: 1708
  • Canada: 1689
  • Mexico: 2137
  • South Africa: 2191
  • USA: 1765

40 hours a week x 50 weeks a year is 2,000 then whatever holidays on top of that. I can see 1765 being right for the US.

Seems low to me. There are 12 federally recognized holidays. So 2 weeks vacation plus 2 weeks and 2 days of holidays is still about 1900 hours. That’s if you work zero hours over overtime too.
