Japan Knowledge Space Co., Ltd. Introduces New Subsidy Program for MR Vaccine and Antibody Testing for Employees Amid Measles Outbreak

■ Background of Introduction

Currently, the outbreak of measles, which is considered highly contagious, has become a social concern. Measles is transmitted through the air, making it difficult to completely prevent with hand washing and masks alone. Furthermore, if a person without immunity is infected, they will almost certainly develop symptoms, with risks of serious complications such as pneumonia and encephalitis. Infections in adults tend to be particularly severe.

To prevent the spread of infection throughout society and maintain an environment where employees can work with peace of mind, it is extremely important for each individual to understand their own antibody (immunity) levels and receive necessary vaccinations. Our company views protecting employee health as an important corporate social responsibility, leading to the swift introduction of this subsidy program.

■ Overview of the MR Vaccination Subsidy Program

This program supports employees in receiving antibody testing and MR vaccination at medical institutions without worrying about out-of-pocket costs.

Program Start Date: June 1, 2026 (temporary measure until August 31, 2026)

Eligible Persons: Regular employees and contract employees of our company

Subsidy Details: A subsidy of up to 10,000 yen per person for the combined costs of antibody testing and MR vaccination (visits for only one of the two are also eligible)

■ Promoting Planned Medical Visits

From taking an antibody test to receiving the results and, if necessary, getting vaccinated, it typically requires two visits to a medical institution and a waiting period of several days to about a week. Our company is providing information to employees so they can plan and smoothly undergo medical examinations, including announcements about the specific flow of medical visits and points to consider for schedule adjustments, along with guidance on using the program.

■ Future Outlook

Japan Knowledge Space Co., Ltd. will continue to accurately grasp social conditions and medical information, and actively promote health management that supports the physical and mental health of its employees. Through creating an environment where employees can work energetically, we will strive to create better services and value.
