In fact, this phenomenon is common enough thatthere is even a word for it, karoshi, which means “death from overwork.” Studies show thatvictims of karoshi usually work over 100 hours of overtime for at least six months. Most of thesehours have been shown to be far from productive. Some experts argue that karoshi is claimingmore than 10,000 lives in Japan annually. One result of all these deaths is that wives and childrenare left with nobody to help them financially. The reason people die from overwork is that theydon’t get enough sleep.
