Millions highly paid experts all over the world risk to lose a family and health because of the long working day and unreasonable loads on work. To such conclusions authors of the research published in magazine Harvard Business Review come.



Authors of research believe, that the phenomenon described by them - xtreme work- forces millions people to refuse pleasures of home life, to forget about dialogue with elderly parents and not to be engaged in education of children.



By estimates of researchers, approximately 45 % of highly paid employees of the large companies spend on a workplace on 60, 70 and even 100 hours per week, 10-day holiday do not take more often than once a year, and are ready to postpone a vacation, wedding and even funeral of relatives if on work at this time there is something important.



The similar operating schedule causes irreparable injury of home life: 45 % interrogated by researchers of extreme workers admitted, that the work chosen by them is incompatible with a high-grade intimate life, and that they in general extremely seldom manage to be thrown with "half" at least in pair words.



Not is better business and with education of children in families of succeeding careerists is. All interrogated, had time to get posterity, recognised, that their children too often watch TV, incorrectly eat, and badly behave at school.



At the same time the majority of participants of research under any conditions are not ready to refuse the post. 80 % interrogated have declared, that find the work non-standard and stimulating. Possibility beyond all bounds high earnings has appeared the third motive on popularity.



extreme work becomes the ubiquitous phenomenon in all sectors of economy, including in a banking and financing, mass-media, show businesses, medicine, jurisprudence etc., authors of research note.
