Towards a Better
Working Environment

A comfortable working environment protects the safety and health of employees, and links to increased productivity through efficient operations. Furthermore, free and open communication is essential to a healthy and pleasant working environment, and the interplay of factors such as “corporate vision and expectations,” “career goals,” and “respect for and development of the individual” is believed to be connected to what makes a job interesting.
In light of these points, MUMSS endeavors to create a pleasant working environment.

Employee Engagement

Greater employee engagement is reflected in job fulfillment and is believed to be linked to increased customer satisfaction and contribution to local communities and society.

ES：Employee Satisfaction

We have conducted an engagement survey every year since 2010, with the aim of understanding factors such as employee motivation, workplace communication, and satisfaction with supervisors, so that we can make improvements and create a better corporate culture. Based on survey results, we have taken action, such as developing training to instill a deeper awareness of such topics as honesty and fairness and the importance of making customer interests our top priority. We have also implemented policies to revitalize our organization and have set up and administer an Opinion Box where employees can submit comments or requests by e-mail.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) Initiatives

We are enhancing diversity in the organization to create an environment where each and every employee is respected and all individuals can fully express the abilities, regardless of differences.

Diversity Report

All of our initiatives are presented in “evolution,” a magazine dedicated to promoting diversity, issued annually and distributed to all employees.

    ＜Health and Productivity Management Target＞
    We believe that it is essential that each employee is healthy and happy in both mind and body to make sustainable contributions to the customers as professionals. We are committed to employee well-being and improving organizational performance (productivity) with Health and Productivity Management. To measure this, we use “presenteeism,” “absenteeism,” and “work engagement” as indicators for Health and Productivity Management.
    FY2021 FY2022 FY2023 Target
    Presenteeism loss ratio ー ー 18% Improve from
    the previous
    year
    Average absenteeism ー ー 2.6 days
    Work engagement 76 73 72
    ※Presenteeism (decrease in performance due to health issues) is calculated using the employee survey. Work performance under normal conditions without illness is deemed 100%, and the past four weeks’ performance was self-evaluated. If the score is 80%, the presenteeism loss ratio is 20%. Lower figures indicate higher productivity. FY2023: 4,928 respondents (94% response).
    ※Absenteeism (absence from work due to health issues (sick leave)) is calculated using the employee survey (how many days were you absent from work in the past year due to illness?). Lower figures indicate higher productivity. The response ratio is the same as above.
    ※Work engagement is calculated using the MUFG Group Awareness Survey (by Willis Towers Watson). Higher figures indicate higher engagement. FY2023: 5,685 respondents (95% response).

    Labor-Related Risk Management and Compliance

    We have a system to comply with labor-related laws and regulations, enforce management, and make improvements as necessary. We define the risk of loss to the company from resource turnover or loss and low morale and similar risks as human resource risk, which is managed as part of the operational risk. In addition, we are focusing on preventing long work hours, such as by implementing excessive work interviews by industrial physicians and examinations by the Health Committee. Our offices have yet to obtain ISO45001, an occupational health and safety management standard.
