Hours worked per week for Pharmacists?
Started by staroceanX
The pharmacists I work with rotate... One week they work 36 hours then the next week they work 40-44. They work three 12's the first week and then the next week they work four 10's or something like that.
Its definitely not uncommon though for pharmacists to work long hours. If you do retail/community pharmacy, stores can be open really late which extends work hours.

You're going to get answers all across the board, but most of them will be right around 35-45 hrs/wk for the average full time pharmacist.
My contract has me at 40, but my hours ended up at 42/week. Now I just increased it to 48.5 as my partners wife is having a baby and he wants to work less. Totally cool with me- OT every week in my own store!
I figure if residents can push 80 hour weeks and the same with ibankers Ive got no problem picking up 1/2 a day every week and getting a roughly 20k a year increase.

55 - 85, I am a slave (resident, I mean) though.
Are you working in a hospital setting?
If you don't mind what is your hourly pay and region?
Roughly 45ish.

Sounds like an interesting schedule. Does this include relief help from the float pool?

85 hours per week!!!!!!! how do you even survive that!?
My total comes to 80 hours per 2 week pay period ....I DON'T do over-time.
I value my free time outside of work too much.
