Abstract
Recently we recognize the problem of "Mental Health for IT Engineers". Human resources are critical for the success of Project Management, and the key is to bring skilled persons' ability into full play. So we, Project managers, should have knowledge of Mental Health for IT engineers, and should study how to cope with keeping it well. But I don't think we have enough care considering a specific feature for IT Industry. In this essay, I'm explaining a present situation of Mental Health, reason and Mental Care as a countermeasure. And also I propose that Project managers should realize the need of Mental Care as one of the project management areas, should have knowledge of this area, and should prevent from losing valuable IT engineers.
