Long hours: 10 comfort gadgets you need for work

We live in a time when working long hours is the norm. Whether you work at an organisation, on the road, or at your home, long hours can put a toll on your mental and physical health.

Many people push themselves to the limit working 16 hour shifts nonstop just to get the job done. They skip meals, eat unhealthy snacks, rely on coffee and energy drinks to keep on going, and to top it off, they lack sleep. This relentless grind often leaves them scrambling to track their hours, especially for those with flexible schedules or freelance work. Time Clock Wizard can be a game-changer, offering an easy-to-use platform to manage your time effectively and ensure you’re accurately logging your hours, even amidst the chaos.

By the time they get through the long hours for a particular task, they get paid, spend most of their money on bills, and then itā€™s back to working long hours once again. The cycle continues and a personā€™s health and lifestyle deteriorate.

Effects on your health and lifestyle when working long hours

When you overwork yourself, your entire life falls apart. You may eat junk food regularly which is full of fat, sugar and salt. This leads to diabetes, hypertension, heart problems and high cholesterol.

Working long hours also means that you do not exercise often. So, while your body lacks nourishment and you consume fatty foods, you donā€™t even burn off the fat causing you to become overweight or obese. Furthermore, your body suffers from chronic pain especially in the head, neck, back, legs and feet.

Then, there is lack of sleep which is the cause of numerous ailments. People suffer from stress, anxiety, lack of focus, depression and numerous mental disorders.

Also, doing too much work affects all your relationships. Other than not having time for family and friends, your mood is dull, hostile and lousy. You push people away and you become a very lonely person.
