KAI is committed to establishing a safe and productive corporate culture based on the
International Occupational Health and Safety management system (ISO45001)
KAI promotes a culture of workplace safety and health to enhance employee well-being. By offering educational programs, counseling, and health promotion activities that support effective self-care, we received the “Health-Friendly Company” certification from the Ministry of Health and Welfare in 2024. With strong support and commitment from management, we are working to establish a health-conscious corporate culture through a variety of programs and benefits. In particular, we support employee health through company-wide experiential programs such as yoga, meditation, smoking and alcohol cessation, and walking initiatives— ultimately aiming to boost productivity and foster a positive corporate culture.
In the first half of 2024, we gathered a wide range of employee-driven ideas for improving workplace safety and health through an internal Safety and Health Risk Factor Improvement Contest. The contest invited employee feedback on topics such as near-miss incidents involving yourself or a colleague, routinely hazardous work environments, and safety procedures or standards in need of improvement. Immediate improvements were made where necessary, and outstanding ideas were recognized with individual awards to help raise safety awareness across the organization. In the second half of 2024, we planned the first “KAI Safety and Environment Golden Bell Challenge” to assess and enhance employees’ safety knowledge. We have been conducting monthly safety quizzes to improve employees’ safety knowledge. Building on this initiative, we introduced the “Golden Bell” format to boost engagement and successfully assess the current level of safety and environmental awareness at KAI. The event was successful, attracting strong interest and participation, not only from KAI employees but also from onsite partner company staff. Each year, KAI hosts a company-wide Safety Day event led by the CEO to recognize outstanding contributions to safety. This initiative promotes greater participation and interest in safety and health activities, helping to establish KAI’s distinctive safety and health culture.
