Safety and health management
NST has established “Enhancement of initiatives that contribute to further improvement of safety and health management” as a key theme in our ESG management. In order to create working environments where all employees can feel excitement and motivation, and to promote employee health, we have created a tripartite collaboration between management, the Human Resources Department and medical office, and health insurance association that is carrying out initiatives.
We will strive to strengthen our safety and health management by improving measures that take into account work-life balance and health, in order to achieve our goal of “becoming a strong growth company that contributes to society.”
Initiative for constructing a safety and health management system
In order to maintain and improve the health of our employees, which is an important foundation for carrying out management issues, NST in 2019 formulated the Health Declaration. Management, the Human Resources Department and medical office, and health insurance association are working together to carry out safety and health management. We were certified for the fifth consecutive year by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Nippon Kenko Kaigi as a 2024 Outstanding Health & Productivity Management Organization (large corporation category).
Conducting regular medical checks and stress checks
NST carries out regular health checks for its employees, and has achieved a participation rate of 100% for the past three years. We will continue to carry out initiatives to maintain this 100% participation rate in the future. We also conduct a stress check once each year for all employees, with meetings with an industrial physician arranged for high-stress employees. Group analysis is also performed for each organization and the results are provided as feedback to executives and to division and section managers. The goal is to prevent harm to health caused by stress and assist with improving personal performance by identifying the conditions of stress in the workplace and helping employees be aware of their own mental conditions.
Holding of physical fitness measurement events: What is your fitness age?
So that employees recognize the importance of everyday continued exercise to maintaining and improving fitness, as a new initiative we have begun holding fitness measurement events. Physical fitness is an essential element for employees to continue working in a healthy manner and to spend a more fulfilling private life. We plan to continue this event in the future to provide an opportunity to learn about one's own physical strength and develop exercise habits.
