The ULVAC Group celebrated its 70th anniversary on August, 2022.
Taking the opportunity of this anniversary, we have formulated "Vision 2032," which is to "Continue to Be a 'Field of Potentiality' for the Future."
This is a vision that we would like to share not only with ourselves but with everyone associated with ULVAC over the next 10 years.
In the midst of drastic changes in the environment surrounding companies and individuals, I hope that each one of you will step out of conventional boundaries, make proposals and challenges for growth.
In the belief that it is our human resources that will realize "Vision 2032" and that it is their health and families that will support them, we will continue to promote health management as an important management priority for realizing sustained growth and enhancement of corporate value.

President and Chief Executive Officer
Human resources are the key to achieving Vision 2032 "Continue to be a 'Field of Potentiality' for the Future." Based on the belief that "health" and "family" support human resources, we promote health and productivity management as one of the most important management issues. At ULVAC, Inc., the president, the Chief Health Promotion Officer, the senior manager of the Personnel Department, occupational health physicians, occupational health nurses, and staff of ULVAC Health Insurance Association act in unison to promote initiatives for health improvement. In addition to health checks, stress checks, and face-to-face guidance for employees who work long hours by an occupational health physician, other initiatives include reduction of health risks and support to enable employees to receive treatment while continuing to work.
The target is "an increase of at least 10% in work engagement by FY 2025 compared with FY 2021." The rate of work engagement at ULVAC, Inc. has been higher than the average in Japan*1 but declined in FY 2022 to 93%*2of the FY 2020 100% baseline. In order to overcome the challenges, with "cultivation of resilient organizations" as a material issue, ULVAC, Inc. introduced a resilience program for executives with the aim of forming habits that improve physical, emotional, mental and spiritual condition. In FY 2023, "case study meetings" were launched at which participants take ownership of their most difficult experiences and examine them with a view to enhancing unity among management. This approach has also been applied to dialogue activities among employees and is becoming more active step by step. Going forward, the ULVAC Group will continue implementing measures to increase work engagement.
Our health risk reduction target is "Health age*3 3.0 years lower than actual age by FY 2025." Programs available for all employees of ULVAC, Inc. include online education programs covering long working hours, nutrition, women's health, and preparation for health checks, and a walking program that utilizes the PepUp healthcare platform. Thanks in part to the effects of these measures, the health age of employees is gradually improving. Whereas the difference between the health age and the actual age of employee was 2.1 years in FY 2021, it was 2.8 years in FY 2022. Going forward, we will continue to implement measures to lower health age.
As a result of implementing these measures, ULVAC, Inc. has been certified by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry as a 2023 Certified Health and Productivity Management Organization under the large enterprise category and the Group companies have been certified as 2023 Certified Health and Productivity Management Organizations under the SME category. ULVAC will continue pursuing various initiatives to maintain and promote the health of employees.
