The scientists explained why it’s dangerous to work more than 40 hours in a week

A workaholic can be detrimental.

The working week should last no more than 39 hours, as excessive employment exerts the harm, both physical and mental condition of the person. To such conclusion have come the Australian scientists from the Australian national University.

In the text of their study, they note that heavy loads are depriving people of the opportunity to spend their time for a quiet meal, and to care for themselves. It is reported that the results of the study based on data of 8 thousands of Australian workers, 65% of them, however, having a permanent job, give her more than 40 hours weekly.

The scientists also stressed that special attention should be paid to women, who often have after a long work day to perform more work around the house. For them, according to experts, the working week should be even shorter.
