Progress to Date and Roadmap to Fiscal 2030

Organization Structure

Promoting Employee Health

We promote employee health through initiatives jointly implemented with the Dexerials Health Insurance Association, based on findings from health checkups, medical interviews, and disease trend analysis. Our efforts focus on lifestyle-related diseases, mental health, smoking cessation, health management for middle-aged and older personnel, and dental health. In addition, we support employees by reviewing health checkup results, encouraging participation in secondary examinations, and implementing infection control measures and health management for personnel engaged in hazardous work, helping employees strengthen their self-care practices.
Since fiscal 2024, we have also been promoting “health visualization” using our in-house health management application “Kenko no Ashiato.” By allowing employees to earn health points in an enjoyable way through daily activities, the app encourages voluntary health-promoting behavior.

Physical and mental health is the foundation upon which enthusiasm for work and the willingness to take on new challenges are built.
Dexerials has adopted the four-leafed clover as the motif for its health care cycle ensuring that each employee can lead a vigorous and fulfilling daily life with a smile.
By supporting the self-directed efforts of employees to maintain and advance their health, we aim for growth and happiness on the part of every employee.
