Panasonic Automotive Systems Certified as an Excellent Corporation for Food Education Practice

Panasonic Automotive Systems Co., Ltd. (President: Masashi Nagayasu, Headquarters: Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture, hereinafter "the Company") has been certified as an Excellent Corporation for Food Education Practice under the Food Education Practice Excellence Award System implemented by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries. 1. "Healthy People Relay Message" (Communication Activation) We implement the "Healthy People Relay Message," where employees from executive class to general staff share their efforts and thoughts on health promotion on the internal portal site. This initiative started mainly with executive class employees in 2023 and expanded to include general employees at each site from 2025. Over two years, it has accumulated more than 10,000 views, contributing to increased health awareness and the establishment of food education. 2. Lifestyle Habit Questionnaire To prevent obesity among employees, we conduct a questionnaire twice a year, created in collaboration with industrial physicians and nursing staff, regarding dietary and exercise habits that cannot be fully grasped through regular health check-up questionnaires. The analysis results are shared on the internal portal site, providing an opportunity for each employee to review their lifestyle habits. As a result, a year-on-year improvement trend has been observed in dietary habits, particularly in areas such as "chewing well and eating slowly" and "reducing oily foods." 3. Food Education Seminars We regularly hold online food education seminars led by registered dietitians from the health insurance association. By making the seminars accessible to employees regardless of whether they are working in the office or remotely, and by providing an environment where archived videos can be viewed later, we aim for continuous improvement in food literacy. In post-seminar questionnaires, over 92% of respondents each time indicated that they "have something specific they would like to implement." Among these, many voices expressed practical ideas, and the continuous effectiveness in raising health awareness and promoting behavioral change has been confirmed. As a result of these initiatives, in the employee awareness survey, 83% of employees in fiscal year 2025 evaluated that "the Company provides necessary enlightenment, opportunities, and support for employee health promotion." Through the development, manufacturing, and sales of in-vehicle equipment, the Company aims to create a sustainable mobility society for the realization of a better life for each customer. To achieve this, it is necessary to build a workplace environment where employees working in our group are physically and mentally healthy, can fully demonstrate their abilities vibrantly, cooperate with each other, and work as the best team. Furthermore, achieving this also leads to the Company's sustainable growth. We will continue to engage in organizational health promotion for the maintenance and improvement of the physical and mental health of our employees and their families. ■ What is the "Food Education Practice Excellence Award System"? Amidst the increasing externalization and simplification of food, and the decrease in vegetable and fruit intake among young people, leading to visible disruptions in adult eating habits, there is a need to promote "adult food education," especially for young people who will lead society in the future. This system recognizes companies that provide healthy meals and other initiatives to improve employees' eating habits and evaluate their efforts.
