Effect of perceived workplace health support on absenteeism and presenteeism among Japanese workers: a prospective cohort study.
Article in Journal of occupational health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesThis study aimed to investigate the impact of perceived workplace health support (PWHS) on absenteeism and presenteeism among Japanese workers to determine the significance of health and productivity management in improving labor productivity.
methodsThis prospective cohort study, using data from the Work Systems & Health Internet Research (WSHIR) study, involved 1879 Japanese workers aged 20-69 years. The intensity of PWHS was assessed using self-administered questionnaires. The participants were followed up from October 2021 to October 2022 to evaluate the incidence of absenteeism and presenteeism based on the level of PWHS.
resultsThe study findings revealed that higher PWHS significantly correlated with lower presenteeism, indicating better work productivity. Conversely, the relationship between PWHS and absenteeism was less clear, with no consistent trend observed across different levels of PWHS intensity.
conclusionsEnhanced PWHS was associated with reduced presenteeism among Japanese workers, underscoring the importance of workplace health support for improving employee productivity. This finding emphasizes the need for companies to focus on health promotion activities and recognize the potential of PWHS as a performance indicator in corporate health management.
