CMIC HOLDINGS Co., Ltd.

CMIC Group was recognized under the Large Enterprise Category (White 500) of the Certified Health and Productivity Management Organization Recognition Program jointly run by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) and Nippon Kenko Kaigi* for its various activities to promote employee health.

METI believes that if companies are to maintain and promote employee health, such efforts will energize business organizations through enhancing employees’ vitality and productivity, leading to improving enterprises’ performance as well as the value of the organization. METI encourages “health and productivity management” and aims to recognize and announce 500 organizations as “White 500” companies by 2020 that engage in excellent health and productivity management program in collaboration with health insurance society members and other associations.

CMIC Group is determined “to bring innovation to healthcare so that all people, regardless of age and gender, can live their precious lives according to their will” (CMIC’s CREED). To achieve the mission, we believe promoting employee wellbeing and creating a rewarding workplace are important foundations. We will establish a CMIC Group Declaration on Health Promotion and actively engage in CollaboHealth Promotion such as disease prevention, prevention of serious condition, and raising health awareness.

Specifically, we have provided support to help employees and their families to live fulfilling lives and developed a mechanism to prioritize health promotion. Further, we are considering new services including prevention of disease onset and progression based on know-hows and knowledge accumulated by the CMIC Group, services that combine analysis of medical practitioners’ receipt for health insurance claim and other data, and early diagnosis of kidney disease using the diagnostic reagent developed by CMIC to measure urinary L-type fatty acid binding protein (L-FABP). We will conduct a pilot study in collaboration with the CMIC Group health insurance association then roll out to external companies and health insurance associations that are promoting health and productivity management.

CMIC Group has so far promoted “Workstyle Reform” and “Diversity Promotion”, but we will add CMIC’s unique health promotion activities based on our CREED to achieve everybody’s wellbeing in day-to-day life, and recognize and appreciate happiness by becoming and staying well.

*The Nippon Kenko Kaigi is an organization that takes practical community- and workplace-based actions, under the collaboration of private organizations and with full governmental administrative support, in order to increase healthy life-spans and to provide appropriate medical care targeting individuals in Japan, a country facing a dramatically advancing aging society. The organization aims to encourage communities and workplaces to enact concrete measures to overcome health-related challenges in collaboration with private organizations, e.g., economic associations, medical-care associations and insurers, and municipalities.
