As a company that contributes to people's health, it is important for us to provide our employees with an environment where they can work with peace of mind, which is why we also actively engage in health management. In order to contribute to society through the creation of innovative pharmaceutical products, it is vital that all employees and their families stay healthy (both physically and mentally), that employees’ workplaces enable them to demonstrate their abilities to their fullest extent, and that the lives of employees and their families are fulfilling. As a highly unique indicator, we have established the difference between the health age of our employees and their actual age. In FY2022, the difference was -1.8 years, but we have set a goal of making it -3.0 years by FY2026. In addition, in an aim to improve the health literacy of our employees, we are working to promote health and productivity management through various activities.
In recognition of such activities, Ono Pharmaceutical has been recognized for six consecutive years as a “Certified Health & Productivity Management Outstanding Organization (White 500),” and we have also been selected as a "2024 Health & Productivity Stock." We will continue our efforts to expand human capital by promoting health and productivity management.
Based on our corporate philosophy, Dedicated to the Fight against Disease and Pain, we desire to contribute to society through the creation of innovative drugs. In order to continue to make bold efforts toward the realization of our corporate philosophy, it is important to ensure that all employees are both mentally and physically healthy, that their workplaces allow them to fully demonstrate their abilities, and that the daily lives of employees and their families are fulfilling. We declare that employees, companies, labor unions, occupational health staff, and health insurance society will actively engage as a single team in maintaining and improving the health of employees and their families.

In March 2024, we were selected for “Health & Productivity Stock Selection 2024,” which is jointly implemented by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) and the Tokyo Stock Exchange. This system selects companies that are implementing particularly outstanding initiatives from among listed companies that are strategically engaged in health management. In addition, we have also been accredited for six consecutive years as a “Health & Productivity Management Outstanding Organization 2024 – White 500 (Large Enterprise Category).”
We set the difference between an employee’s health age® and actual age as a KPI item as one of our activities to enhance human capital in FY2023, and are working to promote our employees’ awareness on their health. We set the goal of increasing the difference between an employee’s health age and actual age from -1.8 years in FY2022 to -3.0 years in FY2026 and will continue to engage in health management through different types of activities.
For effective and efficient health management, we have clarified the important issues and evaluation indicators (KPI) that we want to solve, and we have visualized the flow of initiatives toward the resolution of important issues as a story.
