Basic Philosophy

The Niterra Group has many employees in various locations around the world. We believe that it is our responsibility to make continuous efforts to protect the physical and mental health and safety of each and every employee. We contribute to society by providing our employees with a working environment conducive to mental and physical well-being so that employees can continue to work happily and comfortably.

Promotion System

With the aim of eliminating on-the-job injuries and creating a comfortable, safe work environment, we have established and implemented domestic occupational health and safety management system OHSMS (Occupational Health and Safety Management System). The Central Health and Safety Committee, chaired by the Chief Safety and Health Officer, holds regular meetings twice a year and extraordinary meetings as needed. The Central Safety and Health Committee, under the supervision of the CSR and Sustainability Committee (chaired by an outside director), which is an advisory body to the Board of Directors, formulates Group targets and conducts management reviews by the Chief Safety and Health Manager. In addition, each internal company and department sets targets and plans and engages in health and safety activities through the Health and Safety Committee at each business site.

In FY2023, the Central Safety and Health Committee met twice to report and discuss occupational accidents, the global promotion system, progress in facility safety measures, health management activities, a review of the current fiscal year, and activities for the next fiscal year.
