| الملخص: | This study aims to investigate the impact of work overtime on the severity and the likelihood of depression, considering the influence of several work conditions such as job satisfaction, receiving adequate salary, freedom to do work, and receiving recognition for work. And to study the relationship between depression from work overtime and the number of workdays missed per year. Longitudinal data from the Survey of Health, Ageing, and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) was used to construct several models to study the relationship between the explained variable (depression) and against several control variables. It was found out that working longer overtime hours (more than 40 hours per week) puts workers at a higher possibility and severity for depression. Work-related factors such as job satisfaction and receiving adequate salary are linked with lower levels of depression. For men with work overtime hours, having higher freedom to do work is linked to higher levels of depression. Finally, higher work overtime hours is associated with higher number of work-days missed per year. |
