Preventing Occupational Accidents
The Group regards struck-by accidents, falls, and electrocution as serious
occupational accidents, and takes a range of measures to prevent them.
The TC-type wireless train approach warning system (TC alarm) alerts
workers to an approaching train using sound. Since its adoption in 1998,
we have had no fatal struck-by accidents during maintenance work when
using the system.
In recent years, we have been capturing on changes both inside and
outside the Company and incorporating new technologies, such as using
drones for track surveys and equipment inspections following heavy rains
or earthquakes, in an effort to improve work environments and prevent
workplace accidents.
