[Stress management in large-scale establishments].
Due to a recent dramatic change in industrial structures in Japan, the role of large-scale enterprises is changing. Mass production used to be the major income sources of companies, but nowadays it has changed to high value-added products, including, software development. As a consequence of highly competitive inter-corporate development, there are various sources of job stress which induce health problems in employees, especially those concerned with development or management. To simply to obey the law or offer medical care are not enough to achieve management of these problems. Occupational health staff need to act according to the disease type and provide care with support from the Supervisor and Personnel Division. And for the training, development and consultation system, occupational health staff must work with the Personnel Division and Safety Division, and be approved by management supervisors.
