Working overtime increases heart risk, a study finds


	Quote: People who regularly put in overtime and work 10 or 11-hour days increase their heart disease risk by nearly two-thirds, research suggests. The findings come from a study of 6,000 British civil servants, published online in the European Heart Journal.

I think it says more about civil servants than anything else, most of the ones I know are broke (their own fault) and so need the OT :oops:
