In addition to setting days when all employees take paid leave simultaneously, such as during the year-end and New Year period, and designating June and December as months when employees are recommended to take paid leave, we have established a work environment in which employees feel comfortable about taking time off by, for example, introducing a Refresh Leave System (a special leave program designed to help employees recharge). Furthermore, in FY2022, we introduced an attendance management system, and have since been endeavoring to optimize working hours through the visualization of attendance status.<br>\r\nWe have positioned these initiatives as crucial for enabling employees to work in ways that are physically and mentally healthy and also fulfilling, and we will continue striving to create a comfortable work environment going forward.\r\n\t\t<\/p>\r\n\t\t<h3>\r\n\t\t\tWork-Life Balance\r\n\t\t<\/h3>\r\n<p>\r\n\t\t\tWe believe that achieving work-life balance is essential for all employees to feel fulfilled and maximize their abilities. To support this, we are actively working to expand our systems and foster a workplace culture that enables employees to achieve this balance and a fulfilling work style.<br>\r\nTo create an environment in which both male and female employees feel comfortable taking childcare leave, in FY2024, we introduced a Parental Leave Workplace Support Allowance System that provides a special allowance to employees who support the work of employees on childcare leave, as well as an Hourly Annual Paid Leave System to further promote work-life balance.<br>\r\nFurthermore, in April 2025, we revised our general employer action plans, and are moving forward with the establishment of an environment in which employees can balance work and childcare, and creating a workplace in which all employees can fully demonstrate their abilities. Moving forward, we will continue our efforts to create a more flexible and comfortable work environment that accommodates increasingly diverse lifestyles.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>\r\n\t\t\tKurumin
