Employee Health Management Initiatives
JR Kyushu Group Health Declaration
The JR Kyushu Group established the “JR Kyushu Group Health Declaration” in April 2021. We will work together to promote health management so that each employee can play an active role with vitality to create further "local community invigoration".
JR Kyushu's Health Management Promotion System
With the president as the health management supervisor and the officer in charge of human resources as the health management promotion supervisor, the human resources department, industrial health staff and the health insurance association are working together to promote the health of employees at each workplace.
Each company in the JR Kyushu Group has also designated a health management manager and a department in charge of promoting health management, and by sharing information among the companies with JR Kyushu at the center, we have created a system to promote initiatives throughout the Group.
Health Management in JR Kyushu
JR Kyushu formulates the Basic Health management Policy for each fiscal year by providing feedback on the health status of employees and their management status at the Executive committe, which consists of executives directors and other members, and discussing issues. In addition, we set KPI (Key Performance Indicators) for the health of employees (in line with the period of the medium-term business plan) as an indicator to measure the progress of our efforts.
In March 2021, We were recognized as "Health and Productivity Management: Outstanding Organization"for the
first time as a result of our
initiatives in health-related management thus far.
