This paper discusses the development process, outline, main design points, post-enactment operation, and related research trends based on my own experiences from the formulation of the stress check system. Additionally, it surveys related literature and is the first of its kind to discuss future developments from a legal point of view. The ultimate purpose of the stress check system is to stimulate concrete measures for workplace environment improvements. However, despite frequent group analysis, effective measures for improving the environment have been limited. In this paper, based on past studies, I argue that reduced stress and other effects can be observed in workplaces in which such measures have been implemented, providing qualitative outcomes for workers. In addition, basic data can and has been accumulated for subsequent policies and measures. I conclude that realizing human and organizational individuality as well as supporting growth and environmental adaptation are key to the implementation of effective mental health measures.
