Smart Soudanshitsu Partners With Levacli Workplace Health

The partnership widens access to counseling through an existing employee benefit channel rather than a new standalone service, a route that mirrors how corporate mental health support is increasingly delivered.

Smart Soudanshitsu Partners With Levacli Workplace Health

Smart Soudanshitsu Inc. said its external corporate consultation service will begin a business partnership with Levacli Workplace Health, the employee benefit service run by Leverages Inc., starting October 13, 2026. Employees at companies that have adopted Levacli Workplace Health will be able to use Smart Soudanshitsu's counseling services, choosing from more than 200 qualified professionals including industrial counselors and licensed psychologists.

The two companies frame the tie-up around a gap between reported need and reported access. Smart Soudanshitsu cites the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare's Survey on Labour Safety and Health, in which 13.5 percent of business establishments had workers who took a month or more of leave or left their jobs over mental health issues. A separate Leverages survey found 57.6 percent of full-time employees had experienced mental health issues, while more than 60 percent said their workplace offered no environment for consulting someone. Under the arrangement, employees can raise everyday worries, including interpersonal relationships, work concerns, career anxieties, and private stress, before medical attention becomes necessary.
