The Central Safety and Health Committee chaired by the President set the annual safety and health management targets based on the Group’s Basic Policy of Safety and Health, in order to prevent occupational accidents and maintain the health of our employees. The Safety and Health Committee is held monthly at each business site and workplace to share examples of occupational accidents and countermeasures to prevent similar accidents.

Initiatives for preventive measures for occupational accidents
In FY2023, top management took the initiative in promoting health and safety activities, and conducted central health and safety patrols, to increase standards for safety and health management at the workplace. The Group Health and Safety Promotion Conference was also held with the aim of raising safety and hygiene awareness throughout the Group.
We implemented daily management with safety observations and residual risk management based on risk assessments at the workplace to prevent occupational accidents, and also concentrated on measures to mitigate risks involving "pinching and entanglement," "falls" and "over-exertion" that occur with a particularly high frequency.
In fiscal 2024, we will continue to work to prevent occupational accidents with the participation of all employees, aiming to achieve zero occupational accidents.
