Did most states by 1860 established a twelve hour workday?

By 1860, many states in the U.S. had not yet established a uniform twelve-hour workday across all industries. While some factories and labor movements advocated for shorter workdays, the prevailing norm varied significantly by region and industry. Labor laws were still in their infancy, and most workers, particularly in agriculture and unregulated sectors, often faced longer hours. Consequently, while there were efforts toward reform, a standardized twelve-hour workday was not widely implemented by that time.
