Objective: To identify the contents and application methods of medical questionnaires on mental health used in regular medical examinations for employees' mental health assessment, and examine their validity. Methods: Self-administered surveys concerning presently used medical questionnaires on mental health were mailed to 101 enterprises in Hokkaido. Next, self-administered surveys were mailed to 434 employees working for 9 enterprises in Hokkaido to assess the validity of four types of presently used medical questionnaires. Six scales from the Japanese Version of the NIOSH General Job Stress Questionnaire were used as an extemal validity standard. Correlation analysis of subjects was conducted to examine correlations with presently used medical questionnaires. Results and discussion: 35.7% of enterprises were using medical questionnaires in regular medical examinations. 84.0% of the enterprises used questionnaires of their own. Presently used questionnaires proved to have average correlations to depression scale. While job stressors such as job demands, job load, intergroup conflict didn't show very correlations, though there is a difference by enterprises.
