Updated Sun, June 19th 2016 at 12:09 GMT +3Scientists at Ohio University have warned that women risk developing heart disease and cancer for overworking. Workers who put in long hours face more stress, have sleep and digestive disorders and are more fatigued. According to the research, women who work an average of 60 hours or more over three decades are three times more likely to develop the risk of diabetes, cancer, heart problems and arthritis. Women tend to take the lion's share of family responsibility and may face more pressure and stress than men when they work long hours, previous research shows. The risk begins to climb when women put in more than 40 hours and take a decidedly bad turn above 50 hours, the researchers found.
