For employees to fully demonstrate their abilities, it is necessary to stabilize their lives, improve the quality of their lives, and create a comfortable working environment. Specifically, in addition to achieving compatibility with childcare and nursing care, diverse working styles, and promoting employee health, we have established a variety of systems, including various allowances and subsidies, the provision of company housing, and special non-statutory leave.
Ensuring health is important for employees to work with enthusiasm. To support this, we provide health checkups, health guidance, health consultations, and mental health training. In terms of safety management, we conduct appropriate safety management and operations through regular internal audits and risk assessments of dangerous operations, as well as compliance with laws and internal regulations.
In the past, we introduced a two-day weekly holiday system for construction work. From January 2023, we have further promoted this system and switched to the Saturdays and Sundays holiday system. Saturdays and Sundays holidays were a major decision because they led to a decrease in the number of construction work days. However, the number of recruitment applications is increasing dramatically, and by increasing the number of construction work days on weekdays, we are compensating for the decrease in the number of operating days.
In the construction industry, there continues to be a chronic shortage of human resources, and even from a long-term perspective, a shortage of human resources can lead to lost opportunities for future growth. In addition to strengthening the recruitment of new graduates, we are expanding mid-career recruitment through the use of recruitment agencies and the promotion of recruitment by employees. In this way, we are enhancing compensation that is comparable to other industries and securing excellent human resources.
It was a time ago that ' Let's see and remember ! ' became familiar. When the training of inexperienced workers is left to the job site, there is some variation in the job site, and retirement is not found to be worthwhile. In order to avoid such a situation, we have established a department in charge of training organized by veteran engineering jobs. We will provide training and guidance on a nationwide scale, and work closely together until we become a single employee.
We are proceeding with the opening of sales offices of our own properties throughout the country. The sales office is a large-scale facility that not only serves employees, but also serves as an activity base for certified contractors and stock points for urethane raw materials. By making these properties our own, we will not only conduct business activities rooted in local communities, but also create attractive employment in regions where there is a lack of employment opportunities, thereby contributing to the development of local communities.
We place importance on playing a role in supporting the sustainability of local communities and society in improving sustainability. To date, we have engaged in sporting activities and employing people with disabilities. With the June 2021 Nippon Aqua SDGs Statement, we have focused on activities that are closely linked to day-to-day operations, focusing on more specific topics. As part of these efforts, we have begun new initiatives that contribute to society, such as our "Heart Barrier-Free Activities" and "White Logistics Promotion Campaign."
Increase Employee Satisfaction Level
Improved employee satisfaction leads directly to improved productivity. Since we were founded in 2004, we are a company that is growing every day, so we do not stick with the number of years we have worked or seniority-based system, and we are promoting active and ambitious human resources to important positions. For this reason, we have established a fair and objective evaluation system that is acceptable to everyone. We also increase employee motivation through a pay increase system twice a year and a promotional system once a year.
