Employee Health & Safety
Health and Safety Management
Basic Policy regarding Health and Safety Management
MIRARTH HOLDINGS Group provides proactive support to ensure the safety of employees and maintain and enhance their health. We strive to create work environments where diverse human resources can work to demonstrate their full capabilities. We have established a Health Committee to implement these measures and undertake comprehensive employee health and safety management.
Health Committee
Takara Leben is working to create a workplace environment in which all employees can work with peace of mind, centered on the Health Committee as stipulated by Article 18 of the Occupational Health and Safety Law.
The company's Health Committee considers "traffic accidents," "occupational accidents," and "overtime work" as significant risks that threaten the safety and health of employees in the workplace, and holds regular meetings to conduct investigations and reports on the actual situation and discusses ways to solve problems.
Committee members representing different workplaces raised specific issues of workplace environments and practices that hinder the reduction of overtime work and the promotion of leave-taking, and measures to improve them were discussed with management and implemented in turn.
Safe Driving Courses
Takara Leben conducts safe driving courses at the time of new employee training. The courses explain that making an effort to prevent accidents is a part of our CSR and an aspect of corporate activities. Information on accident trends is presented, group work in the form of risk prediction training is conducted, and various other measures are taken to prevent accidents.
Health Care Management
Efforts to Reduce Working Hours
Takara Leben promotes a "time-conscious and efficient work style" with the aim of improving employee health, and in FY2021, we introduced an "application system for extended PC use" linked to the turning on and off of PCs. The system is expected to reduce overtime hours because if an employee continues to use a PC without requesting extended PC use (overtime work) to the manager, a warning will appear on the screen and the PC will shut down. On the other hand, it is expected that managers will be able to visualize the details of their subordinates’ overtime work, thereby increasing their awareness of the need to manage the organization in a well-balanced manner.
Each company in our group is working to create a workplace environment where employees can work in a relaxed and healthy manner.
Leben Trust is working to resolve issues identified based on an employee awareness survey regarding work-life balance by implementing a no-overtime day twice a month in each section, encouraging staggered work hours and paid holidays, promoting telework, supplementing personnel as needed, and promoting the introduction of DX.
Leben Community has begun operating a new attendance system from October 2022, which allows us to extract various figures for more accurate employee labor management. The company will continue to monitor attendance and work hours to ensure the health management of our employees.
Stress Checks
We conduct stress checks as a form of stress management to prevent mental health issues among employees, and the results are shared at Executive Committee meetings. Moreover, employees can receive free counseling at any time from an independent, third-party organization without the company knowing.
Mental Health
Takara Leben conducts stress checks (once a year) to encourage employees to become aware of their own stress, leading to early detection and response to mental health problems. Employees who have undergone stress checks are provided, according to the results, with learning content that can be used to improve their mental health situation and self-care. Furthermore, we support mental health care for employees and their families through the establishment of a consultation center outside the company where employees can receive advice from professionals (clinical psychologists, mental health workers, and industrial counselors) according to their preferences.
