<dc:description xml:lang="es">Sumario: This review has considered the weight of the evidence linkinglong working hours with health problems in the light of the European Community Directive on Working Time. The effects of long hours or overtime work seem to have been seriously neglected in favour of an understandable preoccupation with the problems of shiftworking. The results of those studies which have investigated overtime effects suggest grounds for concern but have also highlighted the complex nature of the relation between long hours and health: mental health disorders, cardiovascular disorders an performance effects. It is clear that the type and severity of any identified effects are unlikely to be universally applicable, but rather will depend on the characteristics and attitudes of each person, the job requirements, and other aspects of the organisation and cultural climate</dc:description>
