Lunch Study Session Focuses on Employee Health and Workplace Diversity

Exploring Health Management in the Workplace

In July 2025, ColoridaStyle, located in Tokyo, held a lunch study session emphasizing workplace health and diversity. This initiative focused on confronting the health challenges faced by employees, discussing practical solutions for fostering an inclusive work environment.

The Theme: Addressing Employee Health Challenges

The primary aim of the session was to explore how organizations can effectively tackle the health-related issues that employees encounter. Facilitated by Saiko Imai, a licensed psychologist and the head of LIB Laboratory, the event brought forth engaging discussions about health management and psychological safety at work.

During the event, various examples and actionable points from real-world practices were shared among participants. The discussions were centered around providing a safer and healthier workplace, taking into account the diverse experiences of employees and their specific needs.

Session Highlights

The lunch study session comprised several key segments:
1. Understanding Corporate Responsibility: Participants delved into why organizations should actively engage with their employees' health challenges.
2. Gender-Specific Health Issues: A discussion was held on how health challenges differ between genders, emphasizing the unique issues faced by working men and women.
3. Self-Reflection on Health: Attendees were guided to reflect on their own health, encouraging them to identify personal challenges.
4. Strategies for Addressing Health Issues: The session explored various strategies that individuals, supervisors, and HR departments can adopt, providing a comprehensive framework for fostering health-oriented workplace cultures.

Despite the hour-long time frame for this lunch session, participants walked away with extensive insights into the importance of addressing health issues proactively. Recognizing how to manage health problems in the workplace is vital, as everyone faces these challenges in their careers. Thank you, Saiko Imai, for your valuable contributions to this event.
