2）New Initiatives
・Creation of a "Health Management App" on the company intranet (March 2025)
We posted an app on the company intranet that consolidates internal health information, allowing employees easy access to and acquisition of health information.
・Introduction of the 1Minute 1Action (one-minute behavioral change video service) (September)
We introduced this service aiming to increase employees’ interest in health and provide an opportunity to establish healthy living habits with the goal of reducing the risk of lifestyle-related diseases. By providing reliable and high-quality health information to employees and supporting the "improvement of health literacy," we promote behavioral change among employees, which will lead to healthier, longer-term work and more fulfilling private lives.
Our company regards the improvement of health literacy (physical and mental aspects), the improvement of lifestyle habits, and the response to women's health issues as important management themes. In the next fiscal year, we will continue to expand e-learning, seminars, and training related to these topics to deepen employee understanding.
