Understanding Workaholism: Insights from the University of South Australia and University of Western Australia
Understanding the Workaholic Phenomenon
Work addiction has become a pressing concern as new research unveils statistics that suggest Australia ranks among the countries with the highest prevalence of this issue. A global survey led by researchers from the University of South Australia and the University of Western Australia aims to dissect the growing epidemic of workaholism.

The study, spearheaded by Deborah Tyson, Racheal Potter, and Darja Kragt, highlights significant contributors to work addiction, particularly within professional settings. With demanding jobs becoming more prevalent, those in management positions are disproportionately affected. Furthermore, family dynamics play a crucial role, as individuals with relatives battling work-related addictions face unique challenges.
As the survey continues, the findings are expected to contribute valuable insights toward combating this growing concern.
