根據NAC株式會社的調查，修訂版勞動安全衛生規則實施一年後，雖然近90%的公司已認知到職場中暑預防措施的義務化，但約有30%的公司尚未加強相關對策，顯示認知與行動之間存在差距。
在修訂版勞動安全衛生規則實施將滿一年之際，NAC株式會社針對擁有現場或製造職位的公司勞務負責人500名，進行了「職場高溫對策實況調查」。調查顯示，約90%的勞務負責人認知到預防中暑措施的義務化，但約20%完全不知道有罰則存在。此外，雖然「準備飲用水」是未來最想加強的對策，但目前實施率僅約五成，凸顯了企業的兩難。更有約30%的企業在法規修訂後並未加強任何對策。此法規修訂將特定工作環境下的中暑預防措施從「努力義務」改為具有罰則的「法律義務」。
