Background of this document's creation In recent years, the promotion of health and productivity management has been positioned as a crucial management theme that supports improved employee performance and sustainable organizational growth. Since 2023, the disclosure of human capital information has become mandatory for listed companies, and "maintaining employee health" has become one of the key disclosure items. Furthermore, against the backdrop of a shrinking labor population, as companies face intensified recruitment competition and the need to prevent turnover, health and productivity management is increasing in importance from the perspectives of talent strategy, organizational development, and non-financial information.

On the other hand, for management, while they recognize health and productivity management as an important policy, the reality is that it is often difficult to connect it to business and organizational challenges and position it as a continuous initiative. For those in charge of HR, general affairs, labor, and well-being promotion, it is not easy to design everything from organizing necessary items and building promotion structures to managing policy operations in a consistent manner for certification or renewal. It is becoming important not to make obtaining the certification an end in itself, but to proceed with preparation, practice, and operation in an integrated manner while addressing organizational issues.

Based on these corporate challenges, Cradle has released the "Handbook for Obtaining Health & Productivity Management Outstanding Organization Certification," which organizes not only an understanding of the system but also the preparation, practice, and operation required for certification. This document was created based on the expertise of Cradle, which has supported corporate well-being and the promotion of health and productivity management. Cradle is currently implemented in over 10% of companies certified as "White 500" Health & Productivity Management Outstanding Organizations for 2025.

Overview of the "Handbook for Obtaining Health & Productivity Management Outstanding Organization Certification" This document organizes the practical flow toward certification, including an overview of the system, the benefits of certification, and steps from understanding the current situation to building internal structures, executing policies, and preparing applications. It also summarizes common pitfalls—such as leaving tasks to a single person, relying on one-off events, or lacking numerical management—and provides solutions, making it highly practical for companies considering certification or renewal.
