Health action 5

In order to maintain and improve mental and physical health, it is important for each employee to be aware of and acquire healthy lifestyle habits.
For this reason, by focusing on the "5 items of lifestyle habits" and regularly checking them, they should be interested in their own health, and they should "quantify" the health level of the organization and work on it as a priority. We will try to understand the issues.
