Working the mines

Just curious as to working in the mines in the Appalachians. Did the mines work multiple shifts or just one shift per day? I'm assuming they probably worked 6 days a week and 16 hour days back in the 1940-50 period. Anyone have any info? I haven't seen it mentioned in the several books I have on railroads and coal mines.
Thanks,
