The "Excellent Health and Productivity Management Corporation 2019 (White 500)" is a program jointly administered by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) and Nippon Kenko Kaigi, which consists of leading members from financial circles, medical-related associations, and local municipalities. The program recognizes large corporations that implement excellent health and productivity management practices in cooperation with insurers. Its goal is to expand the number of corporations implementing excellent health and productivity management practices.

The Konami Group places special emphasis on establishing a relationship with employees in which they can grow as the company grows, by creating a workplace that enables each employee to maximize their talents.

We conduct an array of programs to support the health and fitness of our employees. For instance, we keep nurses on staff at our offices, and conduct regular health check-ups with industrial doctors. We also set a framework where our employees always have easy access to health-related advice. In addition, to promote the maintenance of our employees' health and work-life balance, we set a recommended date for employees to take paid leave each month, conduct regular stress check-ups, arrange for medical personnel to administer inoculations within our offices as a preventative measure against influenza, and arrange for on-site dental exams.

In cooperation with Japan’s leading combined health insurance group Kanto IT Software Health Insurance Association*, we also make ongoing efforts to maintain and promote the health of not only our employees, but also their families. We conduct various family-oriented programs, such as active lifestyle-encouraging events (e.g. Walk Meets), as well as announce on-site health check-ups for female family members.

We are committed to promoting work-style reforms aimed at achieving sustainable results by further improving the environment and framework in which our employees can work efficiently.

*Kanto IT Software Health Insurance Association is a combined health insurance group with 7,079 member companies that insures 487,511 people (as of the end of January 2019). Our Director and Executive Vice President is Chairman of the Association.
