before the Japanese government in the cabinet The first white paper on the prevention of overwork and death was adopted by the conference on the basis of the law on the prevention of death by overwork and so on. According to the white paper, the results of the 2015 year questionnaire survey on 1 million enterprises (1743 copies) and 20 thousand workers (19583 copies) showed that enterprises with official employees working overtime more than 80 hours accounted for 23% of all enterprises, of which "more than 80 hours less than 100 hours" accounted for 11% of all enterprises. "More than 100 hours" accounts for 12%.
although there is no direct cause and effect between overwork and sudden death, overwork is not good for physical and mental health. It is very important to try to protect yourself when working in all walks of life is almost inevitable.
the "overwork death" is a Japanese - made word. The forerunners of the overtime world have been sling over the end of World War II, after the post-war reconstruction, the economic takeoff, the bubble burst to twenty-first Century, and the work of overtime has become a culture. The word "overwork" came into being. With the rapid development of the economy, young and middle-aged people who have died suddenly during overtime work and overtime have been crowned.
whether in China or Japan, those who died young were killed by hard work? I think it's a bit unfair to blame overtime. Overtime fatigue has always been widespread, it happens before death does not simply speculate that the former leads to the latter.
in fact, researchers have conducted many surveys and have failed to establish a reliable causal relationship between overworked fatigue and sudden death. But the failure of the causal relationship does not mean that the bosses can rest assured that, although they may not be able to lead directly to death, the indirect physical and mental health damage caused by overwork in the work is practical. A simple example is that too much overtime does not necessarily fall directly on the steering wheel, but fatigue driving causes major accidents, but some of the hazards are more hidden and indirect. Persistent fatigue and work stress will change the mood and habits of life. The "energy bomb", made up of sugar and fat, is consoled. It is possible to sit at a desk and stare at a mountain of documents for a long time. The pain caused by the ulcer, the blood from the cancer, and the thought of being busy at the end of the battle, is never too late to pay attention to the health, and the result is too late. Anxiety then changed to yogurt, repeated in the next time to add live. All these life and work habits are inextricably linked to the unhealthy tendency of stress and fatigue, and all kinds of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and even cancer. Therefore, overwork may be a little exaggerated. It is appropriate to say that it is a kind of overdraft health and the behavior of reducing the life expectancy of one's own.
honestly, life is so stressful that overtime work is basically unavoidable. But we can still do a lot of things to reduce the probability of early death, such as eating at normal time, eating less oil and salt, eating more vegetables and egg milk, providing material for self repair, sleeping at normal time as far as possible, leaving a device that can communicate with a cell phone for two hours before bedtime, and see the entity. It is also good to look up at the starry sky, to give a busy day to the opportunity to breathe, and to carry out the outdoor exercise properly, even if it is just a quarter of a clock in the park, even if the effect of the enhancement is not obvious, the sunshine, fresh air and temporarily out of the pressure are useful for the recovery.
