FY 2022, Summary
In FY 2022, business activities were revitalized even as the pandemic continued, and in Azbil also, more people worked than before at each site.
On the other hand, it took time for workers to acquire the sense of danger that is necessary to protect themselves, so compared to the time before the pandemic, accidents occurred that seem to have been caused by underestimation of the danger.
In our analysis, this is due to insufficient ability to adjust to changes in the type of work, leading to an increase in careless accidents, which is to say an increase in human error caused by carelessness and lack of flexible thinking.
For achieving FY 2023 goals
  • Departments in charge of occupational safety will evaluate the effectiveness of recurrence prevention measures.
  • In addition, a declaration of safety will be made if no similar occupational accident has occurred for one year or more.
