Pasona Group Recognized as a Leading Health Management Brand

Pasona Group, headquartered in Chiyoda, Tokyo, has been proudly selected for the third time as a "Health Management Brand 2026" by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) and the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE). This recognition, announced on March 9, 2026, acknowledges companies that not only prioritize employee health management but also innovate in creating organizational health initiatives that are deeply integrated into their management strategies.

In alignment with its commitment to employee wellness, Pasona has established the "Health Declaration," a comprehensive document detailing the company's stance on health management. With executive leadership advocating for a healthier workplace, specific departments such as the Industrial Medical Department and HR Headquarters have been created to oversee and implement effective health management strategies across the organization. By collaborating with professional health staff, including nurses, dietitians, and sports trainers, Pasona actively promotes health-focused practices and conducts regular health check-ups.

Key Initiatives Promoting Health at Pasona Group

1. Annual Lifestyle Survey

Pasona conducts an annual lifestyle survey targeting employees to assess health habits related to exercise, diet, sleep, and personal preferences (including alcohol, snacks, and smoking). The data collected is utilized to provide personalized feedback, allowing employees to reflect on their own lifestyle choices and enhance their health literacy.

2. Employee Communication Through Health Activities

As part of their initiative to foster better communication among employees, Pasona developed an original exercise program called "Pasona Taiso." This program encourages staff to engage in physical activity together during morning meetings or prior to conferences. Additionally, the company offers a workout space that accommodates employees in formal attire and provides healthy lunch options, facilitating inter-departmental communication and collaboration. Through platforms like LINE, Pasona also offers health consultations, educational health columns, and even online health promotion sessions led by industrial nurses.

3. Various Support Channels for Employees

Pasona values the mental and physical health of its employees, providing channels for them to seek advice not only about career matters but also concerning their overall well-being. In addition to consulting with industrial physicians and health promotion experts, the company organizes peer support meetings with experienced employees to nurture connections among staff. Furthermore, specialized programs addressing women’s health issues, such as motherhood challenges, are available via online consultations with expert physicians.

4. Training for Management on Gender-Specific Health Issues

To ensure an inclusive work environment, Pasona’s management team undergoes specialized training focused on gender-specific health concerns. This training emphasizes the economic impact of women’s health issues and addresses the workplace challenges faced by employees with unstable attendance or those dealing with menopause symptoms. Through practical workshops that combine discussions and real-world scenarios, leadership is equipped to create supportive environments where everyone can thrive.

5. Support for Employees Returning to Work After Health Challenges

Recognizing the needs of employees with serious health conditions, such as cancer, the health promotion staff at Pasona collaborates with doctors to offer guidance, monitoring, and flexible work arrangements. The company has implemented various supportive measures, including reduced work hours and access to therapeutic facilities to assist in the transition back to work while continuing necessary treatment.

Pasona Group remains dedicated to promoting employee health and striving towards creating a society where everyone can work vibrantly and maintain their health.
