New research suggests that women working long hours are more likely to be depressed than men working at the same time.
Research also says that weekend work can also contribute to various mental - health problems.
Tests of data with 22,000 workers have revealed that women who had worked long hours (more than 55 hours a week) have been 7.3% more likely to have depressive symptoms than women who work 35-40 hours a week.
Scientists have also stressed that work during weekends is linked to a higher risk of depression in the two genders, where women working on weekends have 4.6% chances of being more depressive, even men 3.4%.
They have stressed that the connection between weekend work and depression may be because weekend workers also tend to do less-paid jobs where depression is more present.
Disillusionment with work can also contribute to those depressing feelings.
