For a third consecutive year, NYK has been included in the “White 500,” a group of large companies demonstrating outstanding health and productivity management, the company said in its release.
NYK ranked in the top 30 percent of the 1,239 applicant companies evaluated by Nippon Kenko Kaigi, which selects companies providing outstanding health management.
Since 2015, NYK has been conducting a health-promotion project in collaboration with the NYK Health Insurance Society. In addition to exchanging information and sharing issues with the NYK Health Insurance Society regularly, NYK offers enhanced regular health checkups at its in-house clinic, and has a doctor on staff to oversee a number of programs, including one to help employees give up smoking. Over the previous year, NYK has also sponsored a running event, in addition to individual coaching events led by certified trainers so as to encourage employees to remain health-conscious.
