Implementation Structure

In promoting the ANA Group Health Management, employees, the health insurance association, and the Group companies work together as one. In addition to appointing an ANA Holdings Inc. executive as the Chief Wellness Officer (CWO) responsible for promoting health management within the ANA Group, each Group company has appointed a Wellness Leader (WL).
The Group’s health management policies, promotion status, and issues are discussed and reported to the Group Corporate Strategy Committee, which is attended by Members of the Board, and important matters are reported to the Board of Directors.

As part of these efforts, at All Nippon Airways Trading Co., Ltd., the Wellness Leader reports to the CEO & President and the executive vice president in charge.
The relevant parties work closely together to promote various health promotion measures based on an accurate understanding of the situation related to employee health.
In addition, we actively communicate our various initiatives not only through internal discussions but also through lectures on health management and our company website.
In developing occupational health and safety measures, we ensure compliance with laws, regulations, and collective agreements. To assess the current situation, we rely primarily on the Health and Safety Committee and employee representatives and discuss issues at all relevant levels.
In addition, we are working on employee health management in cooperation with insurers, such as the health insurance association, and the ANA Tokyo Group Health Management Office to manage the day-to-day health of our employees.
Our system identifies workplace risks, defines their level of urgency, and prioritizes them to implement effective initiatives, including risk countermeasures.

Health Management Strategy Map

In our business as a trading company which is responsible for diversified businesses in the ANA Group, our greatest asset is our human resources.
When each and every employee is healthy, highly motivated, and energetically working to the best of their ability, originality, flexibility, and foresight are nurtured, and this will contribute to the realization of an affluent society and enhancing corporate value.

Results of the initiatives

To promote the ANA Group Health and Productivity Management, we set indicators based on issues and apply the PDCA to improve these indicators. Data on health-related costs, such as absenteeism*1 and presenteeism*2, are analyzed to assess the impact of the initiatives on management.

  • 1. Absenteeism is a condition in which an individual has ill health or a mental health condition that causes them to miss work, take leave, arrive late, or leave early.
  • 2. Presenteeism is a condition in which employees attend work but perform poorly due to ill health or a mental health condition.
1. Employee health challenges

BMI distribution

  • Approximately 70% of both men and women conformed to the standard weight.
  • Out-of-range results include employees who are underweight. As with obese employees, it is important for underweight employees to work toward achieving an appropriate weight, as low weight not only exacerbates back pain but can also cause anemia (fatigue and lethargy) and pose risks during pregnancy and childbirth.

Smoking

  • While smoking rates among both men and women are below the national average, there has been a slight increase in smoking rates among individuals in their 20s and 40s compared to FY2023. This trend highlights the need for smoking cessation measures, including among younger generations.
    (FY2023: Men 27.0%, Women 1.6%; FY2024: Men 28.4%, Women 2.3%)

Given the above, we have established indicators related to BMI, smoking rate, and metabolic syndrome, and also aim to improve employees’ mental health condition. We also established an indicator based on the number of ailment complaints identified from stress checks. These four indicators have been defined as health management benchmarks.

2. Employee health status
  • Ratio of employees with appropriate BMI: Ratio of people applicable to 18.5 ≤ BMI* < 25
    • BMI = weight (kg) / height (m)2
  • Smoking ratio: Ratio of people who smoke
  • Metabolic syndrome ratio: Ratio of people age 40 and over applicable to standards for definition of metabolic syndrome
    • Applicable to standards: Applicable to waist size standards (Male: 85 cm or larger; Female: 90 cm or larger), and has two or more other risks from blood sugar, body fat, and blood pressure
  • Ailment complaint ratio: Ratio of people with three or more ailment complaints*
    • Ailment complaint: Symptoms of physical discomfort: (E.g.) Back pain, eye fatigue, stomach discomfort, etc.
  • Reception rate of detailed examination after regular health checkups:
    52.6%
3. Number of occupational accidents:

FY2024
Workplace accidents: 1
Commuting accidents: 0

4. Average years of service

FY2024: 15.8 years

5. Working hours status

FY2024 company-wide average overtime: 10.2 hours per month

6. Rate of paid leave utilization

FY2024: 52.6%

7. Loss/impact due to health conditions

Most health-related costs are due to presenteeism (i.e., lost employee productivity).
Per-capita health-related costs are shown in the graph below.

[FY2023]

[FY2024]

  • Numbers are calculated based on the respondents (351) who answered both absenteeism and presenteeism questions in the questionnaire.
  • The medical expenses are calculated from the data on the statement of medical expenses.
  • Presenteeism = [Percentage of presenteeism loss] x [FY2023 per capita annual income (salary & bonus)]
  • Absenteeism = [Absenteeism (number of days)] x [FY2023 per capita daily income (annual income divided by 365 days)]

ANA’s Way Survey (ANA Group Employee Awareness Survey)

The ANA Group Employee Engagement Survey (ANA’s Way Survey) is conducted annually to improve employee satisfaction (ES) and engagement by using fixed-point observation, analysis, and enhancements to employees’ attitudes toward their work and workplace satisfaction. It also aims to improve customer satisfaction and corporate value. In fiscal year 2023, 356 employees from ANA TRADING participated in the survey, resulting in a response rate of 98.3%. The overall score remained high at 4.18, as in the previous year (ANA Group average: 3.94). Notably, since the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been an upward trend in scores for employees’ pride in their work.
In fiscal year 2024, 350 employees from ANA TRADING participated in the survey, resulting in a response rate of 96.7%. The overall score reached an impressive 4.20, surpassing the ANA Group average of 3.98. The primary increase in scores was observed in questions related to corporate culture, likely attributable to enhanced communication stemming from more frequent face-to-face interactions.
Following the survey, ANA TRADING distributed reports on results by company and department. We then analyzed the root causes and used the findings to develop action plans and improve communication within each workplace.
We believe that when our employees work with brightness, energy, and vitality, it contributes to corporate growth and customer satisfaction. We will continue our efforts to make ANA Group a rewarding place to work.
