【Key Initiatives】

Company-wide Walking Events

To prevent lifestyle-related diseases, the company holds company-wide walking events twice a year. In commemoration of the company's 30th anniversary, a special project involving management was held, incorporating unique anniversary-themed elements that allowed employees to participate enjoyably. As a result, the event recorded its highest number of participants ever, leading to the establishment of exercise habits and the revitalization of internal communication.

Core Strengthening Event: "Flamingo Competition"

Aiming to establish exercise habits, the company has held the "Flamingo Competition" annually since 2022, where departments compete in core strength through single-leg standing exercises. By creating a system that allows participation from anywhere regardless of work location, the event has fostered a sense of company-wide unity and contributed to improved employee engagement.
