1. overworked

   Overwork is the expression used to define the cause of working too hard, too much, or too long. It can be also related to the act of working beyond one's strength or capacity, causing physical and/or mental distress in the process. Compulsory, mandatory, or forced overtime is usually defined as hours worked in excess of forty hours per week “that the employer makes compulsory with the threat of job loss or the threat of other reprisals such as demotion or assignment to unattractive tasks or work shifts." In 2016, 488 million people were exposed to long working hours (≥55 hours/week), and 745,194 deaths and 23.3 million DALYs were attributable to long working hours.
