MITSUBISHI MOTORS believes ensuring the health and safety of employees is the foundation of corporate activities and has identified ‘Promoting Occupational Health and Safety’ as a Materiality. Accordingly, based on a Health and Safety Management Policy we are undertaking related measures on an ongoing basis, including through offices for on-site cooperation.
In particular, we strive to prevent accidents in production sites, which account for most workplace accidents. In order to prevent these, we make an all-employee effort to identify unsafe conditions and make improvements. In addition to “safety training schools” in the plants, in FY2023, we conducted experiential training using external facilities to increase sensitivity to potential hazards in everyday life, thereby preventing disasters.
Furthermore, safety-related legal compliance assessments are carried out, including at overseas affiliates, to ensure compliance with laws and regulations.
In addition, to maintain and improve the mental and physical health of employees, guidance on improving lifestyle-related diseases and mental health measures are key measures. As a countermeasure against mental illness, which accounts for about half of all sick leave, we have introduced an external program to provide consultation on individual concerns, mental health education and support for improving the work environment.
