“Well-Being Management” That Leads to Creation of Value

Well-Being Management

Promotion of Well-Being Management

We aim to raise employee motivation and performance through the autonomous growth of each employee and the creation of new value through co-creation with customers and society. To this end, we have been actively working to create a positive working environment where employees can work safely and securely. Based on this, we will continue to promote “Well-Being Management” that provides new value to society. Based on the idea that “in addition to physical and mental health, a sense of fulfillment in work, job satisfaction, and a feeling of being useful to society lead to a sense of Well-Being and happiness for each and every employee,” we will continue to practice health and productivity management and promote initiatives to maintain a high level of engagement.

Health and productivity management as the foundation of Well-Being Management

The “Principles for Health and Productivity Management” clearly states that the health of each and every employee is the basis for the happiness of employees and their families and for business growth. This statement has been set out in the work rules along with the responsibilities to be fulfilled by the Company and its employees. As such, we have promoted initiatives as a leading company in working style reforms and health and productivity management.

Under the Medium-Term Management Plan, we are promoting “Well-Being Management,” which enhances job satisfaction through contribution to the creation of social value and economic value, in addition to a comfortable working environment that has been developed through the promotion of working style reforms and health and productivity management to date. In implementing the Medium-Term Management Plan, we have created an officer position in charge of DEIB & Well-Being Promotion, as well as dedicated organization, to accelerate initiatives.

SCSK's initiatives have been highly evaluated by external parties. In the Health and Productivity Management Survey conducted by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI), SCSK was evaluated as a company that makes strategic efforts to manage employees' health from a management perspective, and was selected as a Health and Productivity Stock Selection by the METI and the Tokyo Stock Exchange for the 10th consecutive year since its launch in 2015.

Working style reforms (Smart Work Challenge)

Smart Work Challenge, which was launched in FY2013, is a company-wide measure to promote a highly productive work style, targeting 20 hours or less of the average monthly overtime hours and 100% of the rate of consumed annual paid vacation days. Since FY2020, overtime hours have increased in line with rapid changes in work styles due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, by combining office work and remote work to realize a new way of working that is efficient and highly productive, we have maintained the percentage of positive responses to the employee engagement item “SCSK is a company with a pleasant workplace” at 90% or higher.

Health and productivity management (Kenko Waku Waku Mileage program)

The “Kenko Waku Waku Mileage program,” launched in FY2015, is an initiative aimed at establishing healthy behavior and routines and improving health literacy. Points are awarded for employees’ healthy behavior and health checkup results, and incentives are paid according to the number of points earned per year. Since its launch, almost all employees have participated in the program, contributing to the promotion of actions and the enhancement of awareness that lead to the maintenance and improvement of health. The percentage of positive responses to the employee engagement item “Happiness due to improved health” has been 90% or higher.
