As part of our group-wide efforts, we are continuously enhancing our working environment. Guided by the Group Corporate Code of Conduct, we place great value on diversity and strive to accommodate the unique needs of individuals, while prioritizing their health and safety. To reduce prolonged working hours, we introduced no overtime days and started monitoring attendance records. We also encourage employees to take their eligible leaves by setting the KPIs for the utilization of statutory paid leaves and offering special paid holidays, such as refreshment leaves, congratulatory or bereavement leaves. We will make necessary improvements to our parenting leave benefits, ensuring accessibility for all employees in need. By promoting a better worklife balance, we aim to support long-term career development and create a conducive environment for our employees. Our employees are adept at efficient time management by using web conferencing as needed, both within and outside the company, and some of our business units offer remote work options. Our company has a corporate culture that emphasizes adherence to statutory working hours and encourages employees to take their eligible annual paid leave. By utilizing IT in our operations, we will improve the efficiency and promote flexible and balanced work style.

The Daiwabo Group prioritizes health management and encourages employees to undergo regular health check-ups and stress assessments, and has occupational health physicians on standby as an effort to promote employee’s wellness. Furthermore, we identified their well-being as one of our materiality issues and established a policy to enrich the happiness and job satisfaction of our employees. This includes health management practices, such as mental health assessments and counseling sessions conducted by our occupational health physicians. With the goal of attaining a 100% participation rate in health check-ups, we offer comprehensive health examinations as optional benefits across the group companies. These efforts are dedicated to promoting the well-being of our most valuable asset— our personnel.
