Working Longer Hours Can Increase Risk for Heart Attacks
If you need an excuse to work fewer hours, researchers discovered that working long hours – 46 hours per week or more – may increase the long-term risk of heart problems.
New research finds that employees who work 46 hours or more per week over a period of 10 years have a greater risk of experiencing some type of cardiovascular disease (CVD) event than those working 45 hours or less.
