50-60 hours a week

That number can depend on the staff they work with. A good dependable staff can reduce the amount of hours. On the average it can be from forty to fifty.

Larger, more successful, restaurant chains will usually require their managers to work ten hour days, 5 days a week, although managers may be required to stay longer if circumstances warrant it.

However, it is worth noting that one of the most important duties of the restaurant manager is to control costs, and the biggest cost of any restaurant is employee labor.

As a salaried employee, managers may often have to cut labor costs by taking on certain responsibilities which might normally be delegated to hourly employees.

Restaurant managers who work with smaller, privately owned chains or restaurants which are going through difficult times may need to work much more than 10 hrs. a day and can expect to work six days a week.

At a smaller or struggling establishment, 60-80 hour work weeks are not uncommon.
