Initiatives to Strengthen Health and Safety Systems
One Initiative the Kanamoto is strengthening is safety training. We have put in place systems that work to
prevent
accidents around the Safety and Health Office led by the president. This office regularly conducts in-house
seminars and
audits and works to raise health and safety awareness at all branches. Our efforts to strengthen health and
safety
systems and eradicate occupational accidents have proven successful. As many as 31 branches in Kanamoto are
accident-free over the last 20 years.
Kanamoto's Health and Productivity Management Declaration
As an execution item of our Basic Sustainability Policy, we have established our aim, that is “to help
improve labor conditions throughout society by respecting human rights and consideration toward employee
health and work environment.” The reason is that we think that keeping our employees healthy will allow them
to perform high-quality work, which will lead to the growth of the company and create social contributions
through business.
What is extremely important for our employees and their families are daily awareness and behaviors that
prioritize their mental and physical well-being. To that end, we will support various independent and
ambitious efforts for maintaining and improving health.
The foundation of sustainable management is “a company where employees can continue to work in a cheerful
and healthy way,” and through those efforts we will contribute to the creation of a sustainable society.
Primary Goals
- Strengthen efforts for reducing work hours and promoting use of paid leave.
- Through further strengthening of safety education, aim to improve awareness of health and safety and
eliminate occupational hazards.
- Maintain a regular health check-up rate of 100%, work to improve the rate of specific health check-ups,
and strive to prevent aggravation of illnesses.

Emphasis on Human Resource Development for the Future of Kanamoto
Kanamoto knows excellent human resources with a high level of expertise and skills are the driving force of
sustainable growth. Therefore, we have established the Human Resource Development Policies below.
· Develop human resources who embody the Kanamoto corporate philosophy and action guidelines
· Support employees who want to independently acquire skills and certifications
· Expand training programs and encourage exchange outside the company with the aim of nurturing diverse
views and values
That is why we have built systems to extract and nurture the full potential of each and every employee
through stratified human resource training and development programs for sales persons, engineers, and
administrators.
These specific internal training programs include training and follow-up training for new employees, sales
leadership training, fifth-year technical training, administrative leadership training, and administrative
step-up training by occupation, as well as new branch manager training, block plant manager training, and
office manager training for management. In addition, Kanamoto has also adopted external e-Learning programs
teaching a variety of things, such as compliance and management kills. Kanamoto has also enhanced support
programs that encourage employees in technical fields to acquire necessary certifications. We also actively
promote participation in internal education programs focusing on on-the-job training as well as external
training programs held by various manufacturers.
