Social background of doing business
According to the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, the number of patients with mental illnesses continues to increase, and companies are facing business risks as they incur losses due to employees taking leave or leaving their jobs.
The number of companies conducting stress checks and employee surveys is increasing, but we have found that many companies are saying that they are not making full use of the results.
When we investigated this issue, we found that companies were facing the following issues:
– There is no person in charge of handling data
・I don’t know effective solutions
・Difficult to recommend seeing a medical institution due to negative image In response to these issues, we have developed a “Mental Health Checkup” that measures psychological energy balance and makes it possible to prevent depression.
How to use the service and its benefits

The diagnosis results are immediately output as a sheet and can be checked. In addition to using it for self-management, we recommend that you use it for one-on-one meetings and regular interviews, and it will help create an environment where you don’t have to deal with any issues.
In addition, our staff monitors the diagnostic data, and if we detect a sudden drop in the numbers, we will contact the management or administrative department. This makes it possible to take early action before the employee becomes seriously depressed.
A simple mechanism allows you to understand problems and take countermeasures.

Because it has the feature of being able to be measured quantitatively, data can be visualized, making it easier to understand the situation and changes in the entire organization.
In addition, simple improvement actions are listed on the diagnosis result sheet, allowing companies to take measures themselves. If you require more specialized support, we can provide you with a variety of options such as training, consulting, coaching, or information about counselors and medical institutions.
*Psychological capital is a component that supports an individual’s positive state of mind, and has the advantage of being measurable and intentionally strengthening.
Effective for quitting work due to anxiety
Research on psychological capital has revealed a link not only to stress and anxiety but also to turnover intentions. This feature can be used to prevent employees from leaving their jobs.
Psychological capital has traditionally been used to create a positive psychological state. By supporting self-analysis and motivation to feel the value and significance of working on work, we can expect to have the effect of preventing people from quitting their jobs due to anxiety.
the next deployment
Just as many people undergo health checkups and complete medical checkups every year, we will strive to popularize mental health checkups with the goal of reaching 10 million users, so that mental health checkups become commonplace.
In order to expand the sales channels for our services, we collaborate with professionals, consultants, health management businesses, etc. We are also working to expand our menu of specialized post-diagnosis support.
Thoughts on service
Star Festa Co., Ltd. Representative Kenichiro Asai
When I was in charge of human resources as a company employee, I was worried about people taking time off due to depression. In some cases, I received advice from colleagues with whom I had worked for nearly 10 years. I myself have experienced depression and understand the suffering, so I wanted to help these people, but I felt frustrated that I didn’t have the means to do so.
However, many companies have gradually come to realize that this is a serious social issue, with millions of people nationwide suffering from mental illness going to hospitals. Furthermore, the pandemic has made this problem even bigger, and I have come to think that I want to change this sad situation no matter what.
After spending many years since then, we have been able to develop a service that is both effective at the research level and easy to use in the field.
We hope that the “Mental Health Checkup” will be useful in creating an environment where as many people as possible can recover from depression or worry before they suffer from it.
