Eisai’s corporate concept is to give first thought to patients and the people in the daily living domain, increasing the benefits that health care provides to them as well as meet their diverse healthcare needs worldwide. Eisai calls this the “human health care (hhc)” concept. Eisai regards its employees as an important stakeholder and asset for the realization of its hhc concept.

Eisai issued the Eisai Health Declaration in 2019, and has been making efforts to promote health management. Moreover, to increase human capital value, Eisai made a partial amendment to the Articles of Incorporation at an Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders in 2022, clearly stating that it will strive to “ensure stable employment”, “respect human rights and diversity”, “provide full opportunities for growth to support self-fulfillment”, and “create an employee-friendly environment”. Eisai has also reinforced its human resource initiatives, including the formulation of an Integrated Human Resource Strategy, with the pillars of “wellbeing, including health, of employees”, “diverse work style”, “development and growth of employees”, and “growth of the organization and businesses”. Since 2023, Eisai has been promoting proactive information disclosure with its Human Capital Report which summarizes Eisai’s human capital initiatives and KPIs linked to its human resource strategies.

Through promoting health and productivity management and increasing human capital value, Eisai will continue to increase non-financial value and further contribute to increasing the benefits of patients and the people in the daily living domain.
