Becoming a Company of Well-being where everyone can work with vitality
Since its foundation, the ROHM Group has placed great importance on the health of its employees based on its company mission and basic management policies. In recent years, with the increasing risk of lifestyle-related diseases due to the rise in the average age of employees and the increasing number of people on leave due to mental health problems in the society, there is a need to protect the health and psychological safety of employees even more. For this reason, we have established in May 2023 the "Health and Productivity Management Declaration" with the aim of fostering a corporate culture in which employees can work with vigor and enthusiasm.
Well-being = Being physically, mentally, and socially healthy and content, and maintaining a good state of happiness in many areas
[ROHM Group Health and Productivity Management Declaration]
The ROHM Group focuses on power and analog solutions and solves social problems by contributing to our customers' needs for "energy savings" and “miniaturization" of their products. To achieve this goal, we must become a company where our employees can develop their humanity and intellect and where they can work with vigor and vitality. The foundation for this is to ensure that our employees remain healthy, both physically and mentally.
We declare that we will contribute to the sustainable development of society through our efforts to promote mental and physical health and to help each and every one of our employees achieve well-being.
Isao Matsumoto, President and Representative Director
Health and Safety Management Promotional System
ROHM Group has production bases around the world. We operate a management system based on ISO45001 to ensure the safe operation of our factories and the safety of our employees.
Based on the Safety and Health Policy, the Central Safety and Health Committee promotes safety and health activities
to ensure the safety of all employees, maintain and promote their physical and mental health, and promote the
creation of a comfortable work environment.
The Central Safety and Health Committee is established as a subordinate organization of the EHSS General Committee*,
which is attended by directors with executive authority and division managers, and is responsible for the
appropriate management of serious safety and health risks in ROHM Group.
The Central Safety and Health Committee is chaired by an executive officer, and six specialized subcommittees, which
address various themes such as equipment, chemicals, and health promotion, manage safety and health risks in
cooperation with the Proposed Health Management Office, which serves as the secretariat.
Each subcommittee formulates targets, measures, and evaluations for each theme, and reports progress and results to the Central Safety and Health Committee on a regular basis. The EHSS General Committee also evaluates and confirms that the PDCA cycle of the Central Health Committee is properly implemented, and reports and consults with the Board of Directors as necessary, and checks that a system is in place to maintain and improve the accuracy of the management system. The Board of Directors works in conjunction with the Sustainability Management Committee to discuss sustainability-related policies, directions, and long-term targets, and incorporates the decisions made into the EHSS General Committee and supervises whether activities are being carried out to achieve these targets.
EHSS General Committee: A committee composed of executive officers in charge of the eight
lower management systems
(Risk Management BCM, Supply Chain, Labor, Ethics, Health and Safety, Environment, Information, Quality) to
check whether the PDCA cycle for each system is appropriately implemented.

Initiatives to Promote Health and Productivity Management
1. ROHM Health Up Challenge 7
At ROHM, we call it "Health Up Challenge 7" and aim to realize well-being by helping each individual achieve as many of the seven items related to sleep, stress, exercise, eating habits, drinking, smoking cessation, and communication health as much as possible.
1-1. Sleep Improvement Initiatives
Initiatives to improve sleep include holding seminars on sleep, holding sleep posture pressure measurement sessions, and regularly disseminating information. In addition, the Medical Affairs Office conducts screening tests for sleep apnea syndrome, and is close to employees' sleep concerns.
1-2.Stress Reduction Initiatives (Mental Health Measures)
ROHM has established an in-house clinic staffed by physicians and public health nurses, and has a structure in place for employees to consult and meet with physicians and public health nurses at any time regarding their mental and physical health issues. For employees who have been on leave due to mental illness, the "Return to Work Program" provides support for a smooth return to the workplace in cooperation with industrial physicians and personnel and labor affairs staff.
In addition, we have introduced an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) through an external partner organization to create a structure in which employees and their families can feel free to consult with us. In addition to this support structure, we encourage employees to become aware of their own stress conditions through stress checks to reduce the risk of individual mental health problems, and based on the results of workplace analysis, we directly intervene in high-risk departments and provide feedback on the results to each department to help prevent mental health problems as a company. In addition, based on the results of workplace analysis, we directly intervene in high-risk departments and feed back the results to each department to prevent mental health problems.
In addition, online yoga seminars and mental health seminars (line care and self-care) are held to help employees maintain their mental and physical health.
1-3.Initiatives to Improve Exercise Habit
Initiatives to improve the number of employees who are regular exercisers include a walking campaign using a health app, online exercise seminars, walking meetings, and health events. In addition to company-wide activities, we also set priority health-related implementation goals at each workplace to maintain and improve the health of our members. We regularly monitor the transition of our employees' exercise habits, and achieved an exercise habit rate of 72% in FY 2023. In addition to various events, we also provide subsidies for sports club expenses. Group companies are also implementing initiatives to improve exercise habits, such as "No Elevator Day," which encourages employees to use the stairs instead of the elevator, walking seminars, and yoga point rallies.
1-4.Initiatives for dietary habits
Initiatives to improve dietary habits include holding nutrition education seminars and periodic fairs in collaboration with the employee cafeteria. Most recently, a yogurt seminar was held, and in conjunction with the seminar, a healthy menu using yogurt was offered on the cafeteria menu as a yogurt fair, and a recipe collection was provided.
1-5.Initiatives regarding alcohol consumption
We provide opportunities to learn about proper alcohol consumption by disseminating information on alcohol and holding seminars.
1-6.Initiatives against Smoking
ROHM has promoted anti-smoking activities as part of its efforts to promote employee health and create a comfortable workplace. ROHM has been a smoke-free company since 1998, and since 2009, all ROHM Group companies in Japan have banned smoking.
ROHM employees and employees of affiliated companies have been working to maintain and improve their health. In addition, ROHM has been disseminating information on the smoking cessation program, and is also implementing an initiative called "Marathon 42 Days for Smoking Cessation," in which employees are encouraged to take up the challenge of quitting smoking.
1-7.Communication Initiatives
ROHM places importance on dialogue, and holds communication seminars to facilitate workplace relationships,
ROHM actively conducts communication seminars to facilitate workplace relationships, as well as various roundtable discussions where people can talk frankly about their true feelings. We also use communication as a communication tool to invigorate organizations and teams.
We have also set up a "wai-gaya space" (using the open time in the company cafeteria) that can be used for relaxed meetings, exchanges, and interviews as one of the communication tools to revitalize the organization and teams,
This is one of the ways to create an open workplace and promote internal exchanges.
2.Measures to Prevent Lifestyle-related Diseases
The achievement of a 100% participation in regular health checks is natural for ROHM and we also implement measures to prevent lifestyle-related diseases based on the results of those health checks. This includes the implementation of health guidance for an expanded range of employees that includes those who are under 40 years old and not subject to the official "Specific Health Guidance". The follow-up on the results of the health checks is also strengthened for employees who have particular observations in their results. This includes the industrial physician and health staff recommending examinations at medical institutions and participation in health and exercise seminars.
In addition, to support the eating habits that tend to be disrupted by telecommuting, etc., we hold seminars to improve eating habits and introduce simple healthy recipes that can be prepared while working at home that were solicited from employees.
≪Changes in Those Who Received Health Guidance for Metabolic Syndrome (age:35-39)≫
3.Health Support (Cancer Control, Care for Diseases Specific to Women)
In accordance with the guidelines of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, ROHM has incorporated cervical and breast cancer screening into the company's regular health checkups as a measure against cancers specific to women of working age (20-50 years old) since fiscal 2019, so that female employees can safely examine and receive these examinations. As a result, the cancer screening uptake rate among eligible employees increased significantly from 58% in FY2018 to 95% in FY2019. Since then, all female employees who wish to continue using the company's cancer screening services have continued to do so. The company also encourages all employees to undergo cancer screening, and offers free gastric and colorectal cancer screenings to all employees aged 35 and older, and gynecological examinations to female employees of even-numbered ages.In May 2023, we launched the Cancer Workplace Support Consultation Office to help employees balance treatment and work so they can continue working even after being diagnosed with cancer. We are committed to creating a place where we can listen to employees' concerns and give detailed consideration to their needs.
4.Age-friendly Initiatives
ROHM is committed to age-friendliness throughout the company.
ROHM conducts physical function measurements and self-checks for middle-aged and older workers aged 55 and above, who are at high risk of occupational accidents, to provide them with opportunities to confirm the gap between their own perceptions and their physical functions. Again, we conduct Age Friendly Seminars to raise awareness among middle-aged and older workers to develop age-defying bodies. In addition to this , we also provide education to all employees and implement age-friendly initiatives according to the characteristics of each workplace.
TOPIC.
ROHM believes that it is important that employees get exercise habit to prevent lifestyle-related diseases and work healthy. There, ROHM has set up a Health-Check Corner where employees can use various health-check devices and Fitness equipment free of charge. It includes a vascular age meter and the latest InBody model (body composition analyzer), blood pressure monitor and blood vessel age measuring instrument. ROHM regularly uses these devices to measure the health of employees. ROHM employees can also check their own health status at any time, including body fat percentage, muscle mass, and body water content, as well as basic metabolism, nutritional evaluation, and muscle mass by region.
5. Infection Control Measures
To protect the health of employees, a quarantine system against all infectious diseases is
necessary. ROHM operates a designated infectious disease notification form that can be accessed by all employees who
have contracted an infectious disease. In the event of an infectious disease outbreak, based on the details of the
report, we have established a system that enables us to promptly select and isolate internal contacts and disinfect
the workplace to prevent the spread of infection, in addition to a patient health observation system by in-house
medical personnel.
In order to reduce contact between employees as much as possible in the event of an infectious disease outbreak, we
have established a remote work system, control the attendance rate according to the situation, and prevent infection
in common areas such as the cafeteria. In addition, the company is offering in-house influenza vaccinations to all
employees who wish to receive them (approximately 80% of all employees) at the company's expense, includingthe
coronavirus vaccine in fiscal year 2021.
In addition, for employees transferred overseas and their family members, we provide various travel vaccines
recommended by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, depending on the circumstances in the destination
country. Furthermore, from 2019, rubella antibody checks are incorporated into regular health checkups for male
employees aged 39-57, and those who are antibody-negative are vaccinated free of charge at in-house clinics.
[ Voice of the Person in Charge ]
As stated in the top management's Health Management Declaration, the ROHM Group aims to realize well-being and foster a corporate culture in which employees can work with vigor and vitality. To achieve this, we believe it is important to realize a workplace where all employees can work vigorously and in good physical and mental health. I plan and operate various health promotion measures, such as yoga seminars, walking campaigns, walking meetings, sleep seminars, and age-friendly initiatives, to provide opportunities for employees to enjoy and participate in health promotion, so that they can continue to work in good health and vigor. We are striving to maintain and promote the health of our employees by providing opportunities for them to participate in health promotion while having fun at the same time. We will continue to actively promote health promotion activities with the aim of realizing "well-being" for each and every employee.

Early detection and treatment of cancer is important for employees to continue working in good health. To date, we have provided opportunities for employees to learn more about cancer through in-house educational activities such as in-house seminars and e-learning, which has led to an increase in the cancer screening rate. In May 2023, we established the "Cancer Balance Support Counseling Office" with qualified in-house coordinators to provide support to employees and their families who are struggling to balance work and cancer or intractable diseases.In recognition of these activities, we have received an award for excellence in the promotion of cancer control for two consecutive years from 2022.
Approach to Safety
ROHM Group aims to achieve a safe and comfortable workplace for not only our employees but also everyone involved in business activities.
To achieve this, we have been operating a management system based on ISO45001 and have been working to manage and reduce the identified priority issues and risks in terms of health and safety. And ROHM inserted "Securing a safe workplace" in one of themes and settled on an achievement target in fiscal year 2025. We will promote initiatives aimed at creating a safe and secure workplace.
Targets and Achievements
| Achievement Targets (FY2025) | Target for FY2023 | FY2023 Result | Target for FY2024 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Achieve and maintain the number of lost-time injuries at the ROHM Group of 0 | "0" lost time injuries | Number of accidents resulting in 4 or more days of absence: 5 | Number of Serious accidents*: 0 *Cases in which it is judged that there is a possibility of death or physical loss or disability, and cases in which hospitalization is required. |
Efforts aimed at a Safe Workplace
1.Safety Training
To promote a safe and secure workplace, we provide safety education to our employees. All employees receive introductory training when they join the company. After being assigned to a department, information shared by the Safety and Health Committee is deployed in each department once a month. Specifically, the factors that led to the occurrence of occupational accidents and the details of improvements are horizontally deployed, near-misses are reported, KYT activities are conducted, and revisions to the Health and Safety Law and company regulations are shared so that all employees can work to prevent occupational accidents from occurring. For employees in their second and third years with the company, regular education is provided, including a review, and when promoted, education is provided according to their new position.
Among our domestic plants, ROHM Hamamatsu has established an "Engineer Training Section" that specializes in training mainly equipment engineers. At the Engineer Academy, a facility specializing in training, dedicated in-house instructors provide education not only on specialized technologies, but also on safety management during work. The Engineer Academy was certified as a vocational training facility by Shizuoka Prefecture on March 29, 2023.
(Technical Training)
2.Activities to Prevent Industrial Accidents
In accordance with ISO45001, we are continuously implementing activities to reduce health and safety risks by conducting risk assessment and KYT (risk prediction) activities, as well as identifying and improving near-miss items.
At our overseas plants, we provide training and guidance to employees who have been with the company for a short period of time so that communication on safety issues at the site is not diluted. At our overseas plants, we are also striving to maintain and improve mutual safety awareness and on-site capabilities while implementing mentor-mentee activities in which senior employees who have been with the company for a short period of time provide education and guidance to employees who have been with the company for a long time.
3. Safety Confirmation of Group Locations
ROHM's Head Office conducts comprehensive health and safety audits with the aim of strengthening the operation of the health and safety management system and reducing risks. In FY2023, ROHM conducted safety inspections and discussions with local members at a total of seven manufacturing sites in Japan and overseas locations, and is proceeding with corrective measures and confirmation of identified risks and issues in a planned manner. We are systematically correcting and confirming risks and issues that have been identified.
4.Thorough Implementation of 5S
A workplace environment where nothing is unnecessary and employees can pick up "what they need" "when they need it" "where they need it" is not only efficient but also safe. We believe that these 5S* are the basis of the workplace environment, and we are implementing 5S not only in Japan but also at our overseas sites with the participation of all employees, from the top down.
5S means "sorting", "setting-in-order", "shining", "standardizing" and "sustaining the discipline".
5.Conducting Internal Patrols
Safety is fundamental to the use, management, and implementation of appropriate facilities, machinery, equipment, and operations by workers who are competent in health and safety and follow correct procedures. To ensure this, ROHM is working to identify and correct hazardous areas and unsafe work practices in the workplace through third-party patrols.In addition, by proactively having younger employees accompany the patrols, ROHM provides opportunities for them to develop an eye for detecting defects.In FY2023, we resumed on-site safety checks in areas where online checks and voluntary workplace patrols had been conducted only in the previous fiscal year due to the Corona disaster.
Patrol List
| Patrol | Purpose | Frequency |
|---|---|---|
| Workplace patrol about health and safety* | Workplace risk assessment by persons competent in health and safety | At least once a month |
| Patrol by special committee* | Checks to confirm the appropriate use and management of production equipment, chemical agents, fire extinguishing machinery and equipment, and other facilities | At least once a month |
| Patrol by occupational health physician | Checks to confirm health risks at the workplace as seen from the perspective of industrial physicians | At least once a month |
Each division has a person appointed to be in charge of health and safety. They participate in internal patrols each time to ensure that employees will share a common perception of safety.
TOPIC.
Bicycle Parking Patrol: Confirmation of the Obeying Situation of the Traffic Rule
In order to ensure compliance with traffic rules not only for cars and motorcycles, but also for bicycles, we regularly conduct bicycle parking lot patrols and patrols with the cooperation of the police department. We are working to eliminate violations of laws and regulations such as umbrella-toting, using cell phones, wearing earphones, and riding on the right side of the road.
6.Implementation of Safety and Health Managers' Meetings
ROHM Group regularly holds a meeting for the safety and health managers of each ROHM Group site in Japan. At these meetings, the safety and health targets of the ROHM Group and safety and health activities at each site are shared and opinions are exchanged to promote safety and health activities across the entire Group.
7. Health and Safety Activities with Contractors and on-site stationing companies
In order to realize a safe workplace for everyone involved in our business, we must protect the safety of not only our employees, but also the contractors and stationed companies (cafeteria, cleaning, etc.) who work together on our premises, and create a comfortable and secure work environment. The ROHM Group is cooperating with contractors and stationed companies that work on the premises to implement the following initiatives.
- ・Conduct regular health and safety liaison meetings with contractors and resident companies
- ・Regularly conduct safety and health patrols, industrial physician patrols, and site manager patrols.
- ・Conduct fire extinguisher drills, earthquake evacuation drills, night evacuation drills for chemical and gas leaks.
- ・Implemented KYT*, 5S activities, small group activities and proposal activities to improve a
safe workplace.
"KYT" is an acronym for "Kiken Yochi Training" in Japanese and means hazard prediction training. And this is a method to improve the ability to detect and solve risk factors such as danger and harm in work.
- ・A chemical handling workshop is conducted (on-site or online)
8. Response to Occupational Accidents
When occupational accidents occur, the person in charge of occupational health and safety at the location where the accident occurred will immediately share the information with all relevant personnel in the ROHM Group. Not only the location where the accident occurred, but also related locations and head office personnel cooperate to confirm the circumstances of the accident, analyze the root cause, take measures to prevent recurrence, and horizontally disseminate the information to other locations.

Based on this belief, I am in charge of conducting general audits and patrols at all ROHM Group sites with the aim of reducing safety risks.
When we find a defect, we explain the reason for the defect and what it should be, and after convincing the on-site workers, we try to propose improvements to make the workplace environment safer.
We will continue to promote safety and health activities with the motto that everyone working for ROHM Group should return home in the same condition as when they arrived at work, without being injured.
