Initiatives for improving employee satisfaction [DENSO Corporation]

Employee awareness survey

  • A motivation survey is conducted once every four years (most recently in 2014) to examine and analyze motivation improvements and hindrances by workplace.

Welfare program

  • DENSO has been employing a selection-based welfare program called the DENSO Cafeteria Plan since 2007. Under this program, employees (including full-time and temporary employees) are allotted points in advance and receive benefits from the Company using these points for a wide variety of items in a set menu (including travel, dining, and nursing care).

  • DENSO also offers recreational facilities, apartments for single employees, cafeterias, and other facilities, as well as an asset building assistance program and a Group insurance program.

Companywide sports festival

  • Every autumn a Companywide sports festival is held where teams representing their respective areas (factories) compete to be number one in the Company. In fiscal 2020, a total of approximately 22,000 people took part.
