Our medical staff understand the health condition of each employee and continue providing support for the individuals.

Creation of healthy workplace

Approaches to improving health literacy

PCR testers

We have registered as a Temporary Health Inspection Station for COVID-19 in Mie Prefecture, have opened a PCR Laboratory in DMG MORI IGA Campus, and have installed PCR testers.

Work hour management

We have established a system that limits time at workplaces to 10 hours a day, along with an interval system that ensures 12 hours between leaving the workplace in the evening and arriving for the work the following, in order to prevent employees from working long hours.

Meals with a focus on health

We have renovated our company cafeterias and insist on providing employees with hand-prepared meals made from fresh ingredients and balanced menus with a focus on heath.

Health-related e-learning

We continue to conduct e-learning with the goal of improving employee health literacy. Health literacy is the ability to obtain, understand, evaluate, and make use of health information commensurate with your own state of health. Improving health literacy can help to maintain and improve your state of health and quality of life (QOL).

Lectures from a staff occupational health physician

A staff occupational health physician provides interviews and lectures on topics such as lifestyle diseases, mental health, and oral hygiene.

We closely manage the number of days of paid leave that employees take as well as their total working hours, in order to help ensure that employees remain productive and efficient.
