To explain, this study began with the fact that people who are in high-stress jobs,typically have little control over their work. But then, the study found that workers in these situations are more likely to die younger or have poorer health. However, the report explained, research hasn't found that it was a matter of life and death -- until now. The researchers found that for individuals in low-control jobs, high job demands were associated with a 15.4 percent increase in the likelihood of death, compared to low job demands. For those in high-control jobs, high job demands were associated with a 34 percent decrease in the likelihood of death compared to low job demands.
