Overview

We empirically investigate how the ways of working in Japanese firms are related with workers' mental health and firms' health management. We also examine how sustainably workers and firms can accumulate the healthy and efficient human capital necessary to increase labor productivity. While taking advantage of the knowledge of labor economics, clinical psychology, and mental health sciences, we use a variety of micro-data on the firms and employees to derive the academic and policy implications.
