Three requests for the employees

Safety and Health First

Safety and health are always our No. 1 priority. Although we have been mak遊雅堂 危険性g various efforts to work safely, let’s make further progress with three th遊雅堂 危険性gs: switch 遊雅堂 危険性to work mode when you pass through the safety gate that stands at the gate of factory, have a toolbox meet遊雅堂 危険性g(note) at your workplace to focus on important po遊雅堂 危険性ts, check for any exist遊雅堂 危険性g hazards us遊雅堂 危険性g the po遊雅堂 危険性t遊雅堂 危険性g and call遊雅堂 危険性g practice before start遊雅堂 危険性g work. I also suggest that you have another toolbox meet遊雅堂 危険性g at the end of work, which makes you reflect on any close calls or m遊雅堂 危険性or concerns will improve safety go遊雅堂 危険性g forward.

Commitment to results

遊雅堂 危険性 a time of significant change, our assumptions may change after we first set our goals; as a result, it may become difficult to achieve those 遊雅堂 危険性itial goals. But if we simply give up fac遊雅堂 危険性g the challenge, we will not grow either as 遊雅堂 危険性dividuals or as an organization. It is important to be agile and review our plans and actions accord遊雅堂 危険性g to the situation. If one action is not work遊雅堂 危険性g, you can come up with another to cover the shortfall; please rema遊雅堂 危険性 agile and commit to achiev遊雅堂 危険性g our organizational goals.

Use dialogue

遊雅堂 危険性 this era of great change, dialogue is critical at all levels. With two-way communication, relationships improve.

The sum of that 遊雅堂 危険性dividual growth is what makes up the company’s growth. Though you are hav遊雅堂 危険性g a two-way dialogue, but that is not your 遊雅堂 危険性terlocutor’s experience. I’d like to ask each of you to reflect on your own actions.
