Interviews with companies that have been certified for health management
〇 Naka Nihon Highway Patrol Tokyo Co., Ltd. Yokohama Base
Q1. What kind of work do you have?
A1.24 hours a day, 365 days a year, I work to support highway safety.
Q2. Why did you decide to be certified as a health management company in Yokohama?
A2. Before receiving certification, we had them set individual goals for improving the lifestyle-related diseases as well as physical checkup, and provided guidance as appropriate. However, there was a difference in awareness of improvement due to the large part left to individuals.
When I was looking for a good idea in reforming my consciousness, I learned about the "Yokohama Health Management Certification System" and decided to use it to raise individual health awareness by taking health courses.
Q3. I am glad that I was certified by the health management of Yokohama City.
A3. By taking a health course, I was able to gain the correct knowledge of the content of the physical checkup results and understand my own results. In this course, we encouraged the consultation of secondary examinations and raised awareness of lifestyle habits, and were able to learn specific ways to improve them.
The ability to visualize the intake of vegetables with the "estimated vegetable intake measurement" device has led to a review of one's own dietary habits, and "When purchasing lunch at a convenience store, actively incorporate vegetable salads etc. I would like to work to improve my diet. "
