Isi artikel

In response to requests from employers, the Department of Mental Health of the Panasonic Health Insurance Organization administers a reinstatement support panel to facilitate the return to work of employees who have been absent due to mental health issues. Since 2006, before convening a pre-reinstatement panel meeting for each patient, we have been conducting questionnaire surveys and performing various psychological tests during medical checkups, so as to examine correlations between survey and test findings and employees’ performance after returning to work. The aim is to identify and clarify various factors influencing employees after returning to work, and the evidence obtained has been applied to provide more effective support. It has been found that generally, subjects who communicate well with healthcare personnel, Human Resources Department staff, and supervisors have a favorable prognosis after returning to work. In April 2013 a new reinstatement system for employees with mental health issues was introduced, under which a reinstatement support team is established for each employee with mental health issues to aid their return to work and minimize the risk of further mental health-related absences after reinstatement.
