Most people think Japanese and Korean work longest all over the world. But if non-payed job countsd, such as raising child or cleaning house, Mexican work longest. What is the reason? Does it mean Mexican simply hard working on household jobs in addition to their job for earning money?

when they say that the Japanese and Koreans work harder, they actually refer to paid work because taking care of children or doing house cleaning is not considered a job but rather is known here as a daily or routine activity that you could say is different from a job

The reasons are the low salaries and the lack of productivity.
We have a saying in México "My boss pretends he pays me and I pretend that I work"
Women, on the other side of the coin, work at home as well as their labor day, however, nowadays men are getting involved in the home chores.
