The nonlinear response of the excess work, when made via series expansion inthe parameter perturbation of the average thermodynamic work, requiresadjustments to agree with the Second Law of Thermodynamics. In this work, Ipresent a well-behaved nonlinear response of the irreversible work, based onits well-known cumulant series expansion. From the generalization of thefluctuation-dissipation relation derived from it, I define the terms of theseries expansion in the parameter perturbation of the irreversible work by theterms of the cumulants. Since every cumulant depends on raw moments, I definefrom them the generalized relaxation functions, whose arbitrary constants werechosen guaranteeing the accomplishment of the Second Law of Thermodynamics. Aprocedure to calculate the nonlinear response of the irreversible work is thenprovided.
