I’ve heard this too. They have a term for dying due to being overworked called Karoshi. People who specifically commit suicide due to overwork are called Karojisatsu.
This site has some stats on suicide due to overwork, but it doesn’t have a comparison to suicide due to other reasons. It’s definitely a thing though!
