Resumen

Workaholism is a term that has been gathering importance in the past years. It refers to an excess of work due to uncontrollable impulse generated by internal pressures. However, the addict does not enjoy the work. Workaholism causes a psychosocial damage, since the worker presents signs of psychological unrest, stress, irritation, etc. There are several attributes that increase the possibilities of suffering from this addiction and also several consequences at the individual and organisational level. This makes the prevention methods highly relevant. It is also important to differentiate between workaholism and engagement, since they can be confused at first sight. The confusion between the two could be hurtful for the organisation, because there is a big difference in the levels of performance and productivity.
