Occupational health and safety

Global Occupational Health and Safety Policy

  • GROUP POLICY STATEMENT

    The Fujitsu Group protects the occupational health and safety of the body and mind in all its business activities and contributes to realizing a sustainable future.

  • GROUP AIMS
    • Comply with the laws, guidelines and rules related to OH&S in each country and region, disclose OH&S information, and implement OH&S that incorporates the opinions of employees
    • We aim to achieve the employees' well-being by continuously improving our occupational safety and health management system and by maintaining and enhancing a workplace environment that considers occupational safety, health, and psychosocial risks in accordance with the circumstances of each country and region
    • “Zero occurrences of serious occupational accidents” and eliminate the loss of business opportunities due to preventable operational accidents, incidents and illnesses
    • Identify dangerous areas and factors that may cause health problems, prioritize them, and work to improve issues through workplace inspections and risk assessments
  • SCOPE

    This policy applies to all Fujitsu Group employees.
    In addition, we have established "2. Health and Safety" in the Fujitsu Group Sustainable Procurement Guidelines for all suppliers and partners of the Fujitsu Group and require them to understand and comply with the guidelines.

  • GROUP POLICY OWNER

    This policy has been approved by the CHRO (Chief Human Resources Officer).

  • (*1) OH&S is promoted through Fujitsu Group Well-being activities.
  • (*2) The Central OH&S Committee reports on annual targets and key priorities in Japan.
  • (*3) Under International OH&S, and in support of the Global Occupational Health and Safety Policy, we formulate all the essential details on our Global Occupational Health and Safety Policy, outlining our core vision, key objectives, and actionable steps.

We have established the Global Occupational Health and Safety Policy, and come together as a Group to promote creation of a workplace culture and environment where employees can work safely and comfortably. We revised this policy in March 2026, as we look to strengthen health and safety activities even further throughout the entire Group.
The content of the policies and initiatives related to health and safety are shared with the CHRO (Chief Human Resources Officer) in reports, and also communicated to all employees. Additionally, we have prepared a health and safety management system in each region, thoroughly ensuring compliance and implementing preventative measures for occupational health and safety in accordance with the laws and related guidelines in each country (such as those stipulated by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, ILO, etc.). In this way, we are moving forward with a comprehensive region-led approach that fits conditions in each region.

We have set up the Central Health and Safety Committee in Japan, which is comprised of the representatives of the Human Resources and Corporate Affairs Unit, Health Promotion Unit, and representatives and others from the Labor Union to function as an overseer for the Health and Safety Committees at each business site. The Central Health and Safety Committee meets once per year to share information and report to management and those in charge at each location about the confirmed status of disasters that occurred at business sites and implement preventative measures, while also formulating Group-wide health and safety related policies.
In addition, the health and safety management organizations at individual business sites, comprised of staff from the Human Resources and Corporate Affairs Unit and representative of each business site, hold monthly Health and Safety Committee meetings. These committees establish policies suited to the unique characteristics of each site, set priorities, and work to create healthier, safer workplaces in accordance with policies related to the occupational health and safety. In addition, these health and safety management organizations conduct regular workplace patrols, survey for potentially dangerous areas or causes of health hazards and factors based on a workplace inspection checklist, and report on improvements, and conduct risk assessments. They also post response methods on each business site’s intranet as a preparatory measure for emergencies. The Human Resources Unit has a workplace management inquiry system and workflow for promptly reporting workplace accidents, and responds to inquiries and consultations from employees at any time.
In Europe, the Americas, Oceania, ASEAN, and at the Global Delivery Business Group, we hold health and safety leadership forums three times a year. This forum allows us to monitor and verify performance related to occupational health and safety at the regional and national level. It also acts as a key management framework for evaluating progress toward strategic goals, sharing key results, and promoting continuous improvement activities. Furthermore, it serves the role of encouraging active participation of leaders and fostering a culture that does not tolerate occupational accidents in the workplace.

Fiscal 2025 results

The Fujitsu Group aims to achieve zero occurrences of serious accidents, implementing various measures to create a safe and comfortable working environment at all workplaces and promote mental and physical health.
Specifically, we provide information on health and safety, offer training opportunities to promote awareness of prevention of occupational accidents, as well as establish exercise habits and accident-prevention actions in employees. Furthermore, we also strive to maintain and improve the quality of our activities through acquisition of international certifications. Additionally, in the case that a natural disaster or geopolitical incident occurs in any region, we implement appropriate information provision and strive to ensure the health and safety of all Fujitsu Group employees, their families, Group-related parties and customers.

Occupational health and safety training

We provide education that raises awareness of health and safety, as well as mental health, to match the workplace environments of each country or region. In particular, we consistently send messages in regard to topics such as lifestyle improvements, various vaccinations, and mental health to assist in employee self-care and preventative behaviors.
We also utilize Global Fujitsu Learning EXperience to create an environment where anyone, at a global level, can learn anytime with initiatives suited to the circumstances of each region and country.
In Japan, health and safety education is provided via e-learning to new employees of Fujitsu or Group companies to acquire useful basic knowledge on occupational accident prevention and self-management of health (938 people/year complete the course).
In Europe, the Americas, Oceania, ASEAN, and at the Global Delivery Business Group, the immersive and award winning online training program “Safety Awareness World” allows employees to virtually experience diverse global work environments for the purpose of understanding and properly managing workplace health and safety risks. (95% of the target 35,000 employees have completed this training.) This training is designed to deepen understanding and practical capabilities in regard to managing occupational health and safety risks. It includes a learning mode and testing mode that focus on important topics related to safety, such as reporting hazards and incidents, preparedness in emergencies in various workplace environments, risk assessment, safety of work equipment, and adjustments to remove potential hazards. Additionally, it is available in 10 languages for improved accessibility and allows for comparisons of results between countries and regions. Furthermore, for leaders in Europe, the Americas, Oceania, and at Global Delivery Business Group, we implement the learning program "We Care Manager Program” with the aim of improving mental health and well-being. In this program’s online module, participants learn the basics of dialogue with team members, how to spot the early signs of issues, responding with compassion, having difficult conversations, and how to properly connect team members with support when necessary, all for the purpose of promoting the creation of a mentally sound team. Also, over a 12-week period after the module, we distribute a follow-up video to support recall and implementation of the content.

World Day for Safety and Health at Work

In support of the purpose of the International Labour Organization’s (ILO’s) World Day for Safety and Health at Work, we constantly conduct awareness-raising activities on employee occupational safety and health at a global scale. For the 2025 World Day for Safety and Health at Work, we delivered a message to all employees about the importance of health and safety and a safe and healthy work environment.
In Europe, the Americas, Oceania, ASEAN, and at the Global Delivery Business Group, we conducted safety and health awareness campaigns aimed at building an environment where teams from various countries and regions can work safely. We aim to reduce various risks through education on infectious disease countermeasures, stress management, safety measures when working from home, safe business trips, and accident prevention (such as slips and falls).

Initiatives for obtaining International Occupational Health and Safety Certifications, and External Evaluations

The international standard of ISO 45001 certification for occupational health and safety management (OH&S) has been obtained by Group companies in the UK, France, Spain, Australia, New Zealand, Germany, Portugal, India, Estonia, Poland and the Philippines.
With our acquisition of ISO 45001 certification, we are striving to prevent occupational injuries and health issues, while providing a safe and healthy workplace environment for our employees and other relevant parties.
In addition, a team of occupational health and safety experts who are members of IOSH (Institution of Occupational Safety and Health) and have been certified through ISO45001 lead auditor training have been deployed in various overseas regions outside Japan to support a diverse workforce.
For external evaluations, we were recognized for our efforts to maintain a healthy and safe working environment, and the Global Delivery Business Group (the Philippines) and Heathrow Airport (UK) account received the International Safety Award from the British Safety Council. This award is given in recognition of exemplary efforts in prevention of occupational accidents at workplaces and work-related health hazards, as well as in well-being and mental health.
In the UK, we maintain our various certifications, demonstrating our high standards for health, safety, and compliance. The Contractors Health and Safety Assessment Scheme (CHAS) and SafeContractor demonstrate our compliance with health, safety, and regulatory requirements. Furthermore, the Rail Industry Supplier Qualification Scheme (RISQS) and Achilles UVDB certify our capabilities and trustworthiness in the fields of railways and utilities. Achilles UVDB contributes to responsible supply chain management and ESG compliance promotion. Additionally, “Safety Awareness World” was selected as a winner in category of Employee Learning Programme of the Year by the International Institute of Risk and Safety Management (IIRSM).
This program is a combination of global, practical scenarios and an exercise called “Risk Manager Challenge.” Participants assess and prioritize risks in real-time using a matrix of incident probability and impact, getting instantaneous feedback, so they can improve their judgement. This learning, which is more practical and engaging and fast paced than traditional safety education, leads to enhanced risk response and greater overall safety awareness in employees.
We also continue to participate in the Global Electronics Council’s Sustainability Technology Committee, which has agreed on new requirements regarding the global environment and human rights, as well as the Business Leaders Forum of the IOSH (Institution of Occupational Safety and Health) in the UK.
In Taiwan, we conduct workplace safety and health activities in accordance with regulations established by the Taiwanese government, and have obtained the Healthy Workplace Certification-Health Promotion Mark from the Health Promotion Administration (MOHW-HPA).

Occupational accident response and workplace management

In parallel with thorough prevention measures for workplace accidents, each region and country promptly responds when a workplace accident occurs.
When an employee in Japan is injured at work, a workflow is implemented to quickly and appropriately collect information about the workplace accident, such as when and where the accident occurred, with a strengthened response up through the Human Resources Unit. After confirming the contents of employee and workplace reports, the Human Resources Unit conducts interviews with the persons involved in the accident and the related parties to obtain further details as well as to take the necessary measures for injured persons to recover from the workplace accident. In addition, we are always available to employees for consultations about workplace accidents or general health and safety matters through our workplace management inquiry system.
In Europe, the Americas, Oceania, and at the Global Delivery Business Group, our workplace accident reporting system “Ask Safety” is used for reporting, investigating, and managing recurrence prevention response measures for workplace accidents and incidents. We also regularly promote use of this system to our employees widely in each region and country through training programs, our internal portal sites, and webinar sessions. In addition, we encourage employees to review their work environment and conduct a workplace assessment daily. These assessments include perspectives on commuting and sustainability, including assessing environmental impacts. Employees’ occupational health and safety requests are automatically allotted to the appropriate health and safety specialist, and progress is tracked until the matter has been handled. Furthermore, on the Ask Safety platform, we implement a Workplace Stress Risk Assessment composed of evidence-based questions to grasp and analyze trends in the workplace stress factors affecting employees, leading to the construction of a healthier, more sustainable workplace environment.
We also maintain an internationally certified health and safety management system and support our employees in each country and region by providing policies, procedures, and work instructions built through risk-based processes, and constructing comprehensive emergency preparedness protocols for the continuation of business.
In Taiwan, occupational health nurses visit workplaces monthly to respond to employees' health consultations, providing employees with professional medical care and advice.
