Some see the main benefit of long work hours as higher pay, others see it as an opportunity to show their commitment and increase their chances of promotion.
Long work hours have been recognised to be harmful to employees’ physical and mental health.
Ambition, anxiety, guilt, pleasure, pride, the draw of immediate benefits, the need to establish our value, or an excessive feeling of obligation are some internal forces of overwork.

Lack of self-care, efficiency, work-life balance, anxiety, ignored relationships, substance use are signs of overwork.
