The lower position more vulnerable to heart disease?

Recently, a study in Canada found that, although the boss means high-income and challenging work, but may affect the physical and mental health. The study results are published in "Social Science and Medicine" journal, which states that both advantages and disadvantages cancel each other high positions, so people often think that no effect on health.
A number of previous studies have shown that, in general, people suffering from lower-ranking positions higher risk of heart disease and other diseases, and people with higher life than the positions to be short.
And the University of Toronto researchers studied 1,800 people in America to the data, found that people with higher positions of vulnerability to work, easy to have conflict with colleagues, and work often affects family life.
Involved in the study of the sociology professor Siqi Man (Scott Schieman) said that the conflict with colleagues, or work affects family life, will bring long-term stress, thereby affecting the physical and mental health, "This is not to say there good job right, this position is of course good, but it is important to recognize the possible shortcomings and to deal with. "Siqi Man said.
Of course, there are good aspects of high position, such as high status, high income, independent, which seems to offset the mental and physical health of people pressure.
