And-L's Initiatives

Our mission is "Peace of mind for all challenges," and we are committed to creating an environment where employees can perform at their best in a healthy state. We provide the corporate health support service "And-L Work" to all employees, offering multifaceted support for mental and physical health through online medical consultations, expert consultation services, and stress checks.

In promoting health management, the regularly held "Workplace Health Promotion Discussion Group" received feedback on dietary habits such as "It's difficult to cook at home when busy," "I don't know what to choose," "I can't keep up with breakfast," and "My nutrition is unbalanced due to relying on convenience stores."

Against this background, we provide individual meal and nutrition consultations by registered dietitians through the "And-L Consultation Room," an online expert consultation service offered by "And-L Work."

Individual Meal and Nutrition Consultations by Registered Dietitians and Continuous Follow-up

Registered dietitians from the "And-L Consultation Room" provide internal meal and nutrition consultations.

Consultations are conducted online. After the consultation, behavioral goals are set, and those who wish can receive further consultations. Chat consultations with registered dietitians are free. With a wide range of reservation slots and online implementation, we have created an environment where it is easy to consult and take action.

Employees who participated commented, "It's easy to consult and easy to adjust reservations," "It was difficult to control the amount and content of meals when eating the same as cohabitants, but I received concrete measures and feel I can implement them," and "I want to continue consulting." Employees aiming for weight gain also commented, "The meal plan for gaining weight clarified the issues." These comments indicate support tailored to individual goals.
