It's very heartbreaking and painful , many employees must overwork themselves in order to please their employer, which most times doesn't even notice their honest and hardworking input in the job.

When we over work ourselves everytime, it would be extremely hard for us to be able to put in our best the next time we want to work. This is what actually causes reduction in quality.

The truth is that some employees just look at the benefits that comes with working overtime especially if the pay is right but too much of anything even a good thing can bring negative output.

So what are the negative effects of taking up excessive overtime on the employees

it will bring high level of employee burnout

There will be also excessive reduction in employee engagement.

it will result in higher absenteeism and lower productivity.

Any kind of business or company that is understaffed will always have those who are working in the company working overtime. They can't help it no matter what they do.

This also happens at my organization and you should control excessive over time because you need to pay excessive salary to workers and if that over time is too much then it'll be your loss.

Excessive works resort to body aches and headaches. You will be too exhausted at the end of the day. The next day you will experience muscle pains. But if you're taking anti stress vitamins that will be okay.

over time should be treated in a very unique way. This is because the over time is paid at higher rates to the normal pay.

If you do overtime there is a promise given by the office like double pay, however, one must not forget that health is wealth and we need to our body.
