Message from the President of Health Management

At our company, we are working to make our company even better by doing the following three things.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

　① Company trusted by society and customers

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

　② a company where all employees can work cheerfully and energetically with a sense of fulfillment

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

　③ a profitable company

We think it is not a good company to lack any of these three things, but the important item regarding health is item ②.

First of all, physical and mental health is essential for working. If you have a bad physical condition or many problems, you can’t work cheerfully and cheerfully. Working means spending more than eight hours a day, or nearly half a day working, including commuting and overtime. And if you look at the working hours, it’s prime time when the sun shines from the beginning to the end. How you spend this time in a meaningful way will lead to your happiness and the company’s results.

As a company, we have implemented various health measures, and we will further strengthen them in the future. However, it is still difficult to say that the health culture has fully spread throughout the company. In order to make the workplace physically and mentally healthy and rewarding for employees, it is essential for each employee to raise their own health awareness and workplace health awareness, and to work autonomously and cooperatively to promote health.

For this purpose, in addition to the measures taken so far, we will promote the creation of an airy workplace where employees can pay attention to each other’s health conditions, including opportunities to think about and discuss health promotion at each workplace as well as opportunities to work together as a team. We will further promote our management philosophy of “striving for a happy and fulfilling life for each and every colleague we work with” with our employees throughout the company and work on health management.
