SUSTAINABILITY
Occupational health and safety
We promote the creation of a safe, comfortable, and healthy workplace and aim to create an environment where each and every employee can work with enthusiasm.
Basic policy
Establish a safe and healthy work environment. In addition to complying with laws and regulations related to work style reform, we will promote “health management” with an emphasis on health enhancement.
Objective
Promoting zero occupational accident, prevention of employee health problems, early detection and early response, as well as creating a work environment where each and every employee can work with satisfaction.
The Occupational Health and Safety Council plays a central role in establishing a safety and health management system supervised by the Chief Executive Officer (represents FPT Software) and the President of the Trade Union (represents the Employees). The Occupational Health and Safety Council meets once a month to share seasonal precautions, examples of problems, and information from doctors, and consider measures. The council consists of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President of the Trade Union, Human Resources Manager, Directors of Departments, employees in charge of occupational health and safety. The council periodically reports to the Company’s Board of Director.
Occupational Health and Safety Council organization chart
In FPT Software’s business, which is centered on systems and software development, most of the work is done on personal computers, thus, eye strain and headaches are inevitable. For this reason, we provide large screen monitors and shields to prevent harmful light rays, such as blue light, to employees.
Through these efforts, the number of occupational accidents in the Group has been reduced.
Declaration as a healthy company
For the health of our employees and their families, we will actively promote health awareness and health management, encourage communication, and work on healthy business.

All of our employees receive regular health checkup and manage their medical examination status so that they can maintain their good health. Employees who have not taken health checkup are encouraged to do so by the Human Resources Department as appropriate. In 2021, the percentage of employees taking health checkup was 92%.

In 2022, we focus on (1) providing annual health checkup to prevent the worsening of employees’ sickness, (2) health management and safety and health activities, (3) providing mental health care, (4) prevention of overwork, (5) measures to prevent infectious diseases, and (6) initiatives related to health management.
We maintain a monthly health newsletter which provides our employees with basic medical information, seasonal diseases, prevention and treatment of some common illnesses, etc. The health newsletters are posted monthly on our Company’s internal network.
