【Health and Productivity Management Structure】
To implement Health and Productivity Management, we organize a Promotion Team with the Chairman & CEO as the Health and Productivity Management Officer and the Director in charge of Human Resources & General Affairs as the promotion officer. The Promotion Team formulates and promotes health management plans and measures in cooperation with the insurer, industrial physicians, the Health Committee, and related departments, etc., then the status will be reported to the Management Committee on a regular basis.
【Strategy Map for Health and Productivity Management】
We have formulated the Strategy Map for Health and Productivity Management to clarify connections with the management challenge to be solved through health and productivity management. This map is utilized to run PDCA cycles.
(Goal setting period: Targets are reviewed/re-evaluated every three years.)
(*) In principle, each initiative in "Health Investment" is paired with one item in "Indicators to measure progress of health investment initiatives".
However, since some "Health Investment" initiatives cover multiple "Indicators to measure progress of health investment initiatives", these "Health Investments" are referred to as "Health Investments Related to Multiple Effects".
【Ultimate Goals for Health Initiatives】
- Improve Employee Productivity
In order to identify employee health problems, we will conduct quarterly “Presenteeism Survey” from 2022 to identify what causes sicknesses and affects productivity. By quantitatively capture a status where employees cannot reach their potential at work and their performance deteriorates due to sickness, we will take measures so that every employee can demonstrate their potential to the fullest extent. We have set the target percentage of productivity loss due to presenteeism (*), based on the initial survey result of 19.1%.
(*) Calculation method for the rate (%) of productivity loss due to presenteeism = 100% - presenteeism (%)
- Improve Employee Engagement
We use the engagement survey system "wevox" for quantitative analysis.
