In the world we live in today, work comes on the first priority for most people and for the ones it doesn’t, the companies they work with do not allow them enough time off.
No one likes to keep working each day and all the time. 5-days a week job can be extremely tiring at times and no one wishes to get into that. But there is no other reason you would have to take time off or to work for lesser time right?
Well, now you can have a great reason to work for lesser hours because science is baking you up. Isn’t it great?
According to new research carried out, a person who is more than 40 years old should not work more than 25 hours a week. Because the more hours they work, the lesser productive they will be.
The report was published in the Melbourne Institute Worker Paper. The research was conducted on about 3000 males and 3,500 females. The test analyzed their cognition, memory, reasoning capability, work habits, and abstract reasoning.
The result of the researcher said that they kept the test going and simultaneously increased the hour of work for the volunteers. They worked great until they were working until 25 hours.
The productivity was the highest. But as soon as the time of work started increasing more, the productivity started falling down.
It was recorded that a person who is working for more than 55 hours a week showed to have worse cognitive results. They were even lower from a retired and unemployed person.
There are so many countries that are planning to take the retirement age up. Which means people will now be working for more years of their life without a break. This is going to affect their cognition as well as the work they are doing.
