Health and Productivity Management

JR East Group Health Vision 2029

We formulated a medium-term plan, JR East Group Health Vision 2029, in fiscal 2025 to promote strategic health management.

Promoting the Health Vision

The vision focuses on three themes—Body, Mind, and Connection—and we will promote strategic health management through three methods: Collaboration between people and technology, Combining the Group’s collective strengths, and Open innovation.
As part of our people-focused approach to health promotion, we select health promotion leaders in each workplace, who take the lead in promoting health in the workplace.
By setting workplace targets and having workplaces work as one to promote health through a workplace health promotion cycle, we aim to raise the health awareness and health literacy of all employees and improve their health levels. We present a Health Award to workplaces that have implemented outstanding initiatives as an incentive, and strive to disseminate information about the initiatives of the winning workplaces to serve as reference points for other workplaces.
We also collaborate with the JR East Health Promotion Center, which is staffed by occupational health professionals, and the directly managed JR Tokyo General Hospital and JR Sendai Hospital to support the health of Group employees and their families and contribute to local medical care.

Reconstruction of JR Tokyo General Hospital with a New Ward

JR Tokyo General Hospital, along with JR Sendai Hospital, is a corporate hospital of the JR East Group. It supports the health of Group employees and their families, provides advanced, highquality medical services to the local community, and strives to realize enriched lives for all people and create new value.
The new hospital ward, Building A, which opened on March 24, 2025, houses a new Patient Support Center, which provides one-stop support for patients during their recuperation. Measures against disasters and infectious diseases have also been strengthened, creating an environment where patients can recuperate comfortably. At the same time, the outpatient building, Building B, has been renewed and the surgical support robot “hinotori™” was introduced, strengthening acute care functions and contributing to regional medical care.

Contributing to Society through Blood Donations

As part of our social contribution activities, we are conducting corporate blood drives as a Group, primarily through directly managed medical institutions. We will continue to carry out this activity going forward to support the precious lives of many people who need treatment and bring smiles to the faces of their families.
