‘Karoshi’

This word means “death from overwork”.  It is a phenomenon first recognized in the late 1980’s, caused by the stressful work conditions that had become common as Japan sought to improve it’s post-war economic standing.  Working 12 hours a day, 6-7 days a week has caused the sudden death of thousands of seemingly healthy men.  Sadly, it is still a common occurrence.
