A company awarded with a “Health & Productivity Management Outstanding Organization” designation is a company that considers managing employee health from a corporate management perspective and is strategically engaged in such efforts.

Olympus believes that creating a workplace environment in which its employees can work in good health and with vitality is a prerequisite for advancing the company’s various activities. To support this, Olympus established the Olympus Health Declaration in April 2018, which proclaims management’s commitment to firmly support maintaining and promoting the health of its employees and their families, in cooperation with Olympus Health Insurance Society.
Based on the three basic approaches of “health checkups and care,” “health habit development,” and “mental health,” Olympus has continuously strengthened our health support promotion system, as well as proactively developed various health and lifestyle improvement measures in response to changes in the work environment and working styles. In addition to verifying the effectiveness of each measure, Olympus has set evaluation indicators for overall health management using a health management strategy map that clarifies the linkage between employee health management initiatives and health promotion and management issues, which is actively published on the Olympus Group corporate website. These efforts were recognized with this certification.
Olympus will continue to actively develop health management measures aimed at achieving its corporate philosophy of “Making people’s lives healthier, safer and more fulfilling,” giving priority to the health of the employees—and their families—who are vital to supporting those activities.
