Health and Productivity Management Initiatives
Protecting the health and safety of employees is a fundamental prerequisite for business operations. Many companies implement health initiatives in line with
the requirements of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry’s KENKO Investment for Health Outstanding Organizations Recognition Program.
Although we have not yet obtained this certification, we have implemented fundamental initiatives for a long time, including ensuring that all employees have
regular health checkups, encouraging employees that require treatment or further examination to consult medical professionals, establishing and operating a
rehabilitation work system to support employees returning from personal illness or injury leave, implementing infectious disease prevention measures and
promoting anti-passive smoking policies. We therefore believe that we already have a foundation for health and productivity management in place.
Beginning in FY2025, with advice from external experts, we will thoroughly analyze our current situation to identify challenges, set our future direction and
develop specific initiatives to address these challenges in order of priority. We will also work in collaboration with the health insurance association to
ensure these initiatives are efficiently and effectively implemented.
We will continue to advance health and productivity management to ensure that employees remain physically and mentally healthy and able to perform at their
best.
Mental Health
In order to prevent the occurrence of mental health problems, the company is promoting line care training for managers and counseling services through the
Mental Health Telephone Counseling Service.
In the future, we will conduct stress checks (including at workplaces with fewer than 50 employees, which are not legally required to conduct stress checks) to
help employees understand their own stress status, and promote workplace analysis and counseling for high-stress employees in cooperation with occupational
health physicians and others.
Efforts to Eliminate Workplace Accidents
The company promotes activities aimed at "creating a safe, comfortable and enjoyable workplace" with zero occupational accidents.
Specifically, the Health and Safety Committee plays a central role in reducing the risk of occupational accidents through risk assessment, strengthening safe
work training, and raising the safety awareness of each individual employee.
