In order to achieve a life-work balance, our company is working on the following initiatives: 1. Reducing overtime hours, 2. Encouraging paid vacations, 3. Enriching leisure time, and 4. Promoting health management.
1. Reduce overtime hours
We are striving to reduce long working hours in order to achieve a life-work balance. At our company, overtime hours are decreasing year by year, and we are striving to create an environment that benefits employees at work, such as by ensuring good health and enriching their private time. Currently, the average overtime hours per month is about 10 hours. We also calculate the median overtime hours each month, and the median overtime hours are approximately 5 to 7 hours each month. This actual value is also disclosed externally, and the average and median values of monthly overtime hours for the past four years are published on our website to ensure transparency.

2. Encourage taking paid leave
In order to achieve a life-work balance, we are working to encourage employees to take paid leave. We are proactively encouraging employees to take paid vacations to manage their physical condition and enrich their free time. Our paid vacation usage rate is over 70%.
3. Enriching leisure time
In order to achieve a life-work balance, we want our employees to make effective use of their leisure time generated by reducing overtime hours and taking paid vacations, and we are encouraging employees to focus on sleep, self-study/skill improvement, and refreshment. We are implementing initiatives.
(Specific initiatives for sleep)
1. Implementation of sleep seminars by experts
A lecture on the importance of sleep by an expert (certified psychologist/counselor) at a general meeting (a meeting where all employees gather)
We are implementing.
2. Distributing sleep improvement items
Based on a thorough understanding of sleep, we provide all employees with “custom-made pillows (equivalent to 38,000 yen/piece)” which are sleep improvement items.
We are giving it as a gift to the target. Blue light blocking glasses can also be purchased through the company system.
3. Subsidy for sleep treatment costs
If you need treatment for a sleep disorder, etc., we also have a system to subsidize hospital (sleep outpatient) treatment costs. *Click here for “sleep” initiatives on our website.

(Specific initiatives for self-improvement and skill improvement) We are working to enhance self-study and educational content. We are focusing on creating content that employees can study freely during their free time. We also take input and output into
consideration. The majority of our employees are engineers, and we have a wide range of learning tools to help them acquire technical skills.
In addition, in order to visualize learning outcomes, we encourage students to obtain qualifications, and we offer over 70 types of qualification acquisition incentives.

We are focusing on creating systems that allow employees to refresh themselves during their free time. We believe that a life-work balance can only be achieved through interaction and socializing not only with employees but also with their families, so we have introduced systems to support this.
1. Introduction of Welfare Club (Relo Club)
Welfare services operated by Relo Club are available. Accommodations, recreational facilities, qualification acquisition/skill improvement Member school and other services are available at member prices. 2. Single-lens reflex camera rental system
We rent high-performance single-lens reflex cameras to capture life events (family trips, childbirth, school entrance, graduation, etc.) with good image quality.
We are making deliveries.
3. Flower gift system (once a year as a token of gratitude)
It is only with the support of my family and those around me that I am able to concentrate on my daily work. Once a year for those important people
As a token of our gratitude, we are subsidizing the cost of sending a bouquet of flowers.
4. Massage allowance system
We subsidize the cost of massages for both physical and mental relaxation care. *Click here for “Refresh” initiatives on our website

4. Promotion of health management
Our goal is to proactively engage in health management and extend the “healthy life expectancy” of our employees. For example, for women, the average life expectancy is 86 years, but data shows that the healthy life expectancy (the length of life that can be lived in good health) is 74 years. (In other words, you have been living with some kind of health concerns for about 12 years.) Many people may be in poor health at the time when they have retired from a long-term job and are looking to enjoy the rest of their lives. At our company, we are working on health management with the hope that we can help our employees take care of their health while working and bring their healthy life expectancy closer to the average life expectancy. In order to achieve a life-work balance and lead a healthy and prosperous life, we have introduced over 50 welfare programs.
