Abstract: This study aimed to clarify the relationship between presenteeism and the level of satisfaction with the work environment in the anime industry. Data from the Animation Producers Survey 2023 were analyzed. A total of 366 laborers were included in this study. Presenteeism was assessed using the Work Functioning Impairment Scale (WFun). The satisfaction levels with eight items were evaluated, including current income level, income stability, working hours, workload, professional content, work relationships, job stability, and prospects for future work and work style. No significant differences were observed in the current income level and working hours, which were not according to the Effort-Reward Imbalance model, whereas those of other items were consistent with the model or the Job Demand-Control-Support model. Providing occupational health services tailored to the industry's characteristics is necessary for preventing occupational dysfunction among animators.
