The 'DBJ Health Rating' loan is the world's first financing menu to introduce a specialized 'Health Management Rating' method, which evaluates and selects companies with excellent initiatives for employee health based on DBJ's proprietary evaluation system.

In this rating, the following points were highly evaluated:

By reviewing traditional lifestyle disease countermeasures and adding new themes such as workplace creation for employee success, the company has advanced its health management to be more conscious of enhancing corporate value.
(2) The company has been promoting health management carefully and steadily for many years, such as by systematically and multi-dimensionally analyzing and monitoring employee health data, and disseminating results through digital internal newsletters, including monthly 'Health News' and feedback from participants in meal and exercise programs, to foster health awareness across the company.
(3) To foster an organizational culture where each employee can autonomously and actively take on challenges, the company has reviewed its personnel system and formulated a human capital strategy roadmap linked to its 'Uni-Top Strategy.' While repeatedly examining the optimal future personnel composition by department, the company has begun concrete efforts toward full-scale human capital management, such as improving operational efficiency through DX projects.

Based on these efforts, the company received the highest rating for having 'particularly excellent initiatives for employee health.'
