Default One-third of Canadians are workaholics: StatsCan

http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNew...hub=TopStories

A new Statistics Canada study suggests one-third of Canadians identify themselves as workaholics and are more likely to be dissatisfied with the imbalance between their home and work life.

...

Among them, 39 per cent reported they usually work 50 hours or more per week.

...

Sixty-five per cent of workaholics reported they worried about not spending enough time with their family and friends compared to 45 per cent of non-workaholics who reported the same concern.

....

The study found that workaholics had the same amount of job satisfaction, compared to those who worked less, with no difference in financial satisfaction.
Keown said the study found the number of workaholics in Canada hasn't changed within the past 15 years, which suggests the results are really about people's
