Danger Experience Dojo

Protecting employees from disasters and accidents is an important responsibility of companies. Employee safety supports the stable supply of products and leads to customer trust. We also create peace of mind for our employees and their families, and contribute to the creation of a healthy and safe society.

Based on this idea, the Group has set “zero accidents” as one of its company-wide goals. To achieve this goal, Toyohashi Plant established "Danger Experience Dojo", Feel and Learn Danger seminer, where employees can experience simulated danger, and started practical training on July 1, 2013. This is an attempt to reaffirm the fear of unsafe actions and unsafe situations by simulating disasters that are likely to lead to serious injuries using equipment that is actually used in the workplace. At  “Feel and Learn Danger” seminar, we will continue to implement programs that lead to on-site safety management and evolve employee health and safety management.

At the Danger Experience Dojo, we extract experience targets from past "accident cases" and create a "danger experience menu." In particular, getting caught in something is the top priority experience item due to the high frequency of occurrence. We create our own machines to simulate the dangers, using non-urgent items from around the plant as much as possible, and making them suited to the work we do on site.
