过劳死1. karoshi (Japanese word for "death from overwork". Tetsunojo Uehata, the medical authority who coined the word, defines it as a "condition in which psychologically unsound work processes are allowed to continue in a way that disrupts the worker's normal work and life rhythms, leading to a buildup of fatigue in the body and a chronic condition of overwork accompanied by a worsening of pre-existent high blood pressure and a hardening of the arteries and finally resulting in a fatal breakdown.") |
