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 human capital management. As one part of these initiatives, we newly established a Health Promotion Section in the Human Resources Department. We will carry out measures aimed at further health protection and promotion for our employees.
Safety and health management promotion system
In order to protect and improve the health of our employees, NST in 2019 formulated the Health Declaration. Management, the Human Resources Department (Health Promotion Section), and health insurance association are working together to carry out safety and health management. We were certified for the sixth consecutive year by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Nippon Kenko Kaigi as a 2025 Outstanding Health & Productivity Management Organization (large corporation category).
Conducting regular medical checks and stress checks, and the establishment of a mental health counselor
NST carries out regular health checks for its employees, and has achieved a participation rate of 100% for the past four 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. We also conduct “line care training (training regarding how to support employee mental health)” for division and section managers, and provide support to individual divisions when necessary. Furthermore, we established a counselor in FY2024, and are providing support so that employees can continue to work without a decline in performance by preventing more serious mental health conditions among employees who are experiencing stress or worries.
