Promotion of taking paid leave<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
\n
\n

\n We strive to foster a workplace culture in which employees can easily take annual paid leave by establishing recommended paid leave days and introducing a travel subsidy program. We encourage employees to take consecutive holidays throughout the year, and particularly promote the use of extended leave during the summer vacation encouragement period from July to September. Employees are informed company-wide that regular meetings should not be scheduled during recommended leave days or encouragement periods, and that taking leave should take priority when leave overlaps with meetings or other work-related commitments. By helping employees clearly separate work and personal time, we support a better work-life balance and opportunities for physical and mental refreshment.\n <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section><\/div>\n<\/section>\n
