Hours worked and stress levels amongst professionals.1

Sample Answer 1:


The illustration delineates average working hours of eight types of professionals and the percentages of them suffering from stress-related problems. Overall, despite extended working hours, business owners have fewer anxiety issues while this is highest among the teachers, who works considerably fewer hours per day.

As the data suggests, businessmen work roughly 70 hours a week, higher than any other professional. Despite this longer professional engagement, their percentage of work-stress issues is lower, 11% to be precise. Doctors and movie producers both work more than 10 hours per day and their percentages of illness from work pressure account for 15 and 18 percent respectively. Writers and programmers have considerably fewer stress issues despite their more office duration than chefs, who work for only 30 hours per week but constitute 10% patients with stress-related problems. It is worth noticing that, one in four lecturers suffers from stress-related sicknesses though their working hours per week is the lowest, only 25 hours. This signifies that illness from stress from professional engagement is not directly related to the working hours of these professionals.

Sample Answer 2:


The graphs present data about working hours of different professionals and the percentage of employees experience stress-related issues. Overall, businessmen work longer hours on an average and the stress-related illness among teachers are highest.

As is presented in the bar graph, businessmen work 70 hours per week, the highest, among the average working hours of given professionals. Movie producers work 60 hours per week, which is the second highest. The third longest working hours per weeks are for Doctors and they work more than 50 hours per week. Writers, programmers, lawyers and chefs work 47, 40, 37 and 30 hours per week consecutively. The least working hours are for lecturers, 28 hours a week.

Interestingly, though the lecturers work fewer hours per week than other professionals, their stress-related sickness is higher than other experts. On an average, one-fourth teachers have this problem. Movie producers and doctors have 18 and 15 percentage anxiety issues consecutively. Though businessmen work longer hours a week, their percentage of stress-related ailment is only 10%, lesser than the lecturers, movie producers and doctors. Programmers, writer and lawyers suffer this issue less than 10% of the total.
