Description

Harald Hannerz looks at long work hours and health in Denmark in a 2024 study. Laws often cap the work week to guard health, but the best cap needs firm data. The study reuses three Danish group studies to supply that data.

Work hour data came from labor surveys run from 1999 to 2013. Health follow-up came from national records on injury care, deaths, and filled prescriptions. Two drug groups were tracked: drugs for mood and drugs for blood pressure. Risk was charted hour by hour against a standard week. The design lets law makers see where, if at all, risk climbs as hours grow past the norm.
