Short Note on Epidemiology Collaboration on Occupational Health

Li Yuqiang

Although there are few statistics on the prevalence of long-term sick leave in Japan, it is a major issue for public health. Our goal was to provide reference data regarding private sector long-term sick leave in Japan. The participants in the Japan Epidemiology Collaboration on Occupational Health Study comprised the population of the study. Each company provided information on medically certified 30-day sick leave. From April 2012 to March 2014, a age- and sex-specific incidence rate of sick leave was calculated. During the 162,989 and 30,645 person years of observation, there were a total of 1422 spells in men and 289 in women, respectively.
