Much work is also lost

A British study found that working long hours at a time can increase the risk of dementia. People who work less than 41 hours a week often have better memory-related work skills.

According to research, the more time we work, the greater the risk of dementia or memory loss, especially working for many hours at the same time.

Middle-aged workers who work more than 55 hours per week often have lower intellectual skills than those who work less than 41 hours a week. Scientists have proven it is the best time for working skills related to short memory and long-term memory as well as the ability to memorize words.

In addition, the study also pointed out, stress and exhaustion because working for hours also destroyed the brain quickly. This level of danger is compared with smokers.

According to the survey, in the UK, the number of people working 48 hours / week accounts for 1/8 and this is the largest number in Europe. Therefore, there are many people in the UK who are always in a state of stress, fatigue and mental and physical exhaustion.

This is the result of a survey of 2,214 Britons. Researchers said that if people do not determine the amount of time worked in a day, it is really dangerous for the brain, especially when we enter the middle age.

Professor Marianna Virtanen, who led the research team from the Institute of Public Health in Finland, learned about workers from the 80s to the present and commented that about 39% of workers work less than 40 hours / week, 53% worked in 41-55 hours / week and 8% worked more than 55 hours / week.

Professor Cary Cooper, an expert in stress studies who adds, working long hours makes you always feel, working inefficiently is the first influence. Then your brain is severely affected. Not only that, when too stressful with work, attitudes and behaviors with people around them also decrease, affecting your relationships very much.
