Office workers have an increased risk of breast cancer up to three times as much.

Any physical activity you do will surely affect the health of the body. So do your work activities.

A study conducted in Danish women, showed that the activity can make your job affected by breast cancer.

Good job that demands a division of working hours (shift) and often late into the night overtime or regular office work.

2008 last year, Danish National Board of Industrial Injuries, recorded 75 Danish women affected by breast cancer due to working in shift systems. Working in a shift system will disrupt the endocrine hormone production in women.

Not only shift workers or frequent overtime can be problematic on breast health. Office workers also have a very high risk

Steve Blair of the American College of Sports Medicine reveals that the office work that requires employees to spend time in front of the computer has a risk of breast cancer up to three times as much.

Research does indicate the existence of radiation exposure and carbon emissions from your computer to the breast area while working at the computer. Disorder of breast health will be more severe happen to workers who are often in contact with equipment or heavy machinery.
