Sense Trust Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture; Representative Director: Yasuhito Imanaka; hereinafter "the Company") announces that it has strengthened its internal systems aimed at maintaining the physical and mental health of its employees and improving their motivation, coinciding with World Health Day on April 7th, as designated by the WHO.

The Company has long believed that "for a company to grow sustainably, it is essential for each and every employee to be healthy and happy both physically and mentally." Based on this belief, we have been working to develop systems and foster a culture where employees actively strive to improve their health awareness, creating an environment where each employee can work vibrantly and demonstrate their abilities.

We believe these initiatives are in line with the theme of World Health Day 2026: "Health for all, based on science."

Against this backdrop, we have now introduced the health promotion allowance "SENSE HEALTH" and the beauty allowance "SENSE BEAUTY," building upon the "Non-smoking Allowance" that has been in operation for some time.

Welfare Benefits that Embody Our Health-Focused Management

◾️"Non-smoking Allowance": Reducing Disease Risk and Maintaining Concentration

To maintain employees' long-term health and achieve a clean working environment, a monthly allowance of 5,000 yen is continuously provided to non-smokers and those who have quit smoking.

By promoting non-smoking, we aim to improve the health of each employee and correct the differences in working hours caused by smoking and non-smoking, thereby creating a fairer and more productive working environment.

As indicated in reports by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (※1), promoting non-smoking is one of the preventive measures that reduce major health risks such as cancer and lifestyle-related diseases. It also leads to the suppression of decreased concentration and stress fluctuations due to nicotine dependence, contributing to sustained performance improvement.

◾️"SENSE HEALTH" (Health Promotion Allowance): Supporting Basic Physical Strength Improvement and Fatigue Recovery

We have revised the corporate membership system for specific gyms, which had been in operation since our founding, and renewed it into a system where all employees can equally access health opportunities.
We provide a monthly allowance of 5,000 yen to support employees' efforts to maintain and promote their health according to their lifestyles, such as monthly fees for fitness gyms, yoga and Pilates studios, purchasing supplements, and using massage and acupuncture clinics.

It is known that moderate exercise promotes the secretion of serotonin, a brain chemical that stabilizes the mind (※2). By supporting diverse exercise habits and body maintenance as a company, it leads to good quality sleep (※3) and helps reduce daytime fatigue and prevent decreased judgment.

◾️"SENSE BEAUTY" (Beauty Allowance): Psychological Care that Boosts Self-Efficacy

Based on our cherished value of "honing one's sense," we view personal grooming as a form of self-expression and have introduced this allowance to encourage a state where individuals can positively express their individuality.

A monthly allowance of 5,000 yen is provided for services such as hair salons, barbers, nail salons, esthetics, spas, and the purchase of cosmetics and skincare products.

In the field of psychology, it has been reported that actions to improve one's appearance directly lead to stress reduction and motivation improvement (※4). Enjoying one's favorite style is expected to foster confidence in "I can do it" and enable a positive approach to work.

Voices from Users

  • "I switched from my previous gym to a gym with more extensive facilities, including a pool and aesthetic services."

  • "Using an acupuncture clinic has alleviated neck and shoulder fatigue from PC work. I feel that getting my condition in order has led to improved work efficiency."

  • "I continue to use the gym I had a corporate contract with even after the system was renewed. Maintaining my exercise habits has led to better health management and improved daily performance."

  • "Utilizing 'SENSE BEAUTY' has increased the frequency of my hair salon visits. It's not just a change of pace; having confidence in my appearance allows me to approach work with a positive attitude."

  • "Because I was concerned about skin problems, I switched to slightly more expensive skincare products and became more consciously engaged in self-care. My mood also became more positive as my condition improved."

Representative Comment (Representative Director: Yasuhito Imanaka)

We believe that for a company to grow sustainably, each and every employee must be healthy in mind and body and prosperous in both material and spiritual aspects. I myself am conscious of both internal and external care in my daily life, and I truly feel that this directly leads to improved work performance. By extending this idea to each employee, we aim to further enhance the overall strength of our organization.

Moving forward, we will continue to earnestly listen to the voices from the field and promote the creation of an environment where employees can always perform at their best and maximize their abilities, aiming for further improvement in corporate value.
