Ergomania (or ergophobia is the fear, but ergomania is the obsessive desire) refers to an excessive or abnormal desire to work. The prefix 'ergo-' comes from Greek 'ergon' meaning work. The other options are different: epomania (not standard), etheromania (relating to ether), and verbomania (excessive speech).
