Addictions are usually frowned upon, nevertheless the addiction work has clear social and economic reinforcements and it is often considered as a clean addiction. There is no consensus on the definition, and the instruments of measurement are scarce and slightly studied. In spite of this, such addiction undoubtedly has clear consequences on the sufferers’ health and on their productive quality. The few research studies available on this topic point towards the family and company’s culture as its two main sources. There is hardly research on therapy and intervention, and it is more often a practical topic than the object of scientific investigation. Positive psychology can give a complementary perspective of study that describes and explains healthy and productive dedication to work.
