Overworked -- and Paying the Price

  1. In the U.S., 85.8 percent of males and 66.5 percent of females work more than 40 hours per week.
  2. Americans work 137 more hours per year than Japanese workers, 260 more hours per year than British workers, and 499 more hours per year than French workers.
  3. Stress is the #1 cause of health problems -- mentally and physically.
  4. Stress costs U.S. businesses roughly $300 billion a year as a result of absenteeism, reduced productivity levels and employee turnover.
