To clarify measures for making clearer instructions on how to read the results of general health checkups in a workplace by surveying the views of workers on these instructions, an anonymous self-administered questionnaire survey was conducted at a Japanese manufacturing plant. The responses of 984 male workers were analyzed. The average age of the subjects was 32.1 yr (range, 19-60 yr). Regarding the instructions, 4.1% of the subjects answered "definitely sufficient," 58.9% "somewhat sufficient," 28.0% "neither sufficient nor insufficient," 8.1% "somewhat insufficient" and 0.8% "definitely insufficient." Multiple regression analysis showed that the degree of examinees' satisfaction significantly correlated with the health condition (standard partial regression coefficient =0.189, p<0.001), knowledge of health management (standard partial regression coefficient =0.095, p=0.014), and fear of lifestyle-related diseases (standard partial regression coefficient =0.095, p=0.009). The adjusted R square value of the multiple regression analysis was 0.064. It is necessary to provide more detailed information to those with poor health. Because the instructions contain many difficult medical terms, health professionals must give instructions that are easy to understand. Those feeling fear of lifestyle-related diseases may already know how to read checkup results. It is necessary to promote awareness of lifestyle-related diseases targeting people unfamiliar with such diseases.<br>
