New research has found that people who work 11-hour days or more increase their chance of a heart attack by about 67%.
Researchers say the risk is so great that GPs should ask patients what hours they work along with how much they drink or smoke. Scientists monitored 7,000 people over 11 years, over which time 192 had suffered a heart attack.
They found that those who worked more than 11 hours a day were 67 per cent more likely to have one than those who had a nine to five job.
