Thus, we can be reasonably confident that the ANSYS model has been set-up correctly. We have however not checked that we have resolved the high stresses at the left and right ends correctly. So we cannot say anything about when the part would fail. Further mesh refinement may be needed. We also should get rid of the stress singularity at the point load (by distributing it over a region) and at the left corners (by filleting these corners).
