Initiatives for the Health and Productivity Management

We recognize health management as an important measure for human capital management and have made a "Declaration of Health and Productivity Management" to raise the health awareness of each and every employee, and are developing a variety of initiatives in cooperation with the Mikuni Health Insurance Association.
For the sixth year in a row, Mikuni has been awarded the "Excellent Health and Productivity Management Corporation (Large-Scale Corporation Category)" by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan and the Nippon Kenko Kaigi (Japan Health Council), which jointly selects corporations that are strategically addressing employee health from a corporate perspective. Furthermore, this year, we were awarded the 'White 500' designation for the first time, which is given to the top 500 companies within the Health and Productivity Management Outstanding Organizations 2025 program.
Our efforts in health and productivity management are not limited to Japan, but extend to the entire group, including overseas operations. We will continue to support the maintenance and promotion of the health of our employees and further enhance our management capabilities.
Furthermore, we believe that for our future growth, it is important to permeate the concept of 'health and productivity management' throughout the entire supply chain, and we are sharing our ideas and initiatives with each of our business partners.

Declaration of Health and Productivity Management

We recognize that the mental and physical healthy lives of our employees and their families bring happiness to both the company and local communities, and will work on measures to promote good health as an entire group.

Health Initiatives and Achievements

This section shows the status of health initiatives and KPIs (target values).
The achievements of various initiatives outlined in the strategy map are quantitatively and consistently monitored through surveys, seminar participation rates, and other metrics. In doing so, we are promoting collaboration with the health insurance society through a PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle, while aligning with our focus on improving employees' health literacy and reducing high-risk individuals.
