Occupational Health and Safety Management System

At EIZO Corporation and EIZO MS Corporation, which account for 80% of our product manufacturing, we have implemented a labor safety and health management system. We continuously improve safety and health for everyone working on-site and have achieved ISO 45001 certification.

At these facilities, we conduct regular workplace safety and health patrols and hazard prediction training to enhance employee education and safety awareness. We also implement risk assessment methods to investigate and address potential hazards or harmful conditions. For specialized tasks involving chemicals, we carry out chemical risk assessments, verify substances using safety data sheets, ensure proper use of protective equipment, and strive to reduce risks. Additionally, we work on reducing traffic accidents related to work and commuting, and have established systems to respond to emergencies such as fires and earthquakes. We continuously improve based on the results of regular training. In FY2023, based on the results of our risk assessment, we implemented physical measures and safety education for high-risk equipment operations. In addition, to reduce traffic accidents, we undertook education regarding accident prevention and driving habits. For disaster prevention, due to continuously implementing measures and drills involving our equipment, when the Noto Peninsula earthquake occurred on January 1, 2024, we were able to minimize damage to our business and were also able to confirm the safety of our employees in a timely manner. In FY2024 we have systematically implemented improvements to further enhance safety. We seek to prevent industrial accidents at overseas group companies as well, through initiatives such as organizing employee training and distributing handbooks on industrial accidents.
