Enework Launches Comprehensive Occupational Health Services for SMEs

Enework: A Bold Step Towards Enhanced Occupational Health for SMEs

On April 1, 2024, Enework, a new player in the occupational health sector, officially launched its services targeting small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Headquartered in Chiyoda, Tokyo, the company is led by CEO Masaki Kitaguchi. The need for effective occupational health services for SMEs has never been greater, especially given the increasing complexity of workplace health issues in recent years.

Background: The Increasing Importance of Occupational Health

Due to advancements in labor reform and a rise in mental health-related challenges, the health concerns surrounding businesses have grown increasingly intricate. Under Japan's Occupational Safety and Health Law, companies with 50 or more employees are required to appoint occupational health physicians, highlighting the necessity for specialized health management and guidance. However, SMEs often face a greater impact from health issues due to their limited resources. Here, timely consultations and preventive measures become not just beneficial but essential.

Occupational physicians not only help individuals with health support but also contribute to creating a conducive work environment and enhancing productivity through safety committee engagements and workplace inspections. Enework has emerged to respond to these societal demands and the realities of SMEs by offering manageable and scalable occupational health solutions.
