Nuke workers at risk of overwork death
Tokyo Electric Power Co. workers engaged in efforts to stabilize the crisis-hit Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant are at risk of depression or death from overwork, a doctor who recently examined them says.
...
Many of the workers have been exposed to multiple stresses, he said, as some of them barely survived the March 11 quake and tsunami, as well as subsequent hydrogen explosions that wrecked the plant's reactors, while others lost their homes or saw kin or friends die.

"Many are complaining of difficulty sleeping and the risks of depression and death from overwork will rise further if this goes on," the doctor said after examining some 90 Tepco workers from Saturday through Tuesday at the nearby Fukushima No. 2 plant.
