Sustainability InitiativesLabor Standards (Creating a Comfortable Workplace)
Work-life Balance
We have introduced flextime, and are promoting the reduction of overtime work, and the use of paid leave in order to achieve a better work-life balance for our employees. We are working to promote paid leave utilization by posting the rate of paid leave utilization by office and department on the company intranet. The paid leave utilization rate was 78.1% in FY2022, and 87.5% in FY2023. As for childcare leave, we make it known on the intranet that men can also take childcare leave. Five male employees took childcare leave in FY2022 and then nine in FY2023.

Harassment Prevention Measures
Employee work rules and regulations clearly state that sexual harassment, power harassment, and harassment related to pregnancy, childbirth, childcare leave, and nursing care leave are prohibited and that violations will result in disciplinary action.
In addition, a consultation service for harassment has been set up. It provides for the protection of the privacy of those involved and to ensure that no disadvantageous treatment is given to whistleblowers.
The results of the workplace analysis of the stress check are fed back to the head of the department for use in workplace management, and various training programs are conducted as needed to prevent harassment.
