For health promotion and stopping passive smoking of employees, we implement enlightenment activities including complete separation of smoking area from non-smoking rooms, delivering message from health insurance association and post a notice about no smoking. From 2019, we started to bear full cost of smoking cessation clinics for employees who try to quit smoking and introducing the non-smoking hours in the office. Furthermore, in 2020, the range of no-smoking hour settings has been expanded.

In promoting the creation of comfortable workplaces, we give first priority to the securing of safety and health and endeavor to secure employees' health and safety by engaging in various efforts. While we have not obtained certifications such as OHSAS 18001, we secure occupational safety under our own system by regularly conducting risk assessment and improving issues.
Our goal is to keep the number of occupational accidents to zero/each year, no fatal accidents have occurred in the past five years (from 2019 to 2023) among contractors or at other companies involved in our real estate development.
