for All Works in Japan

This now completes ISO 45001 certification of six of the company’s works, also including Chita Works, West Japan Works (Kurashiki and Fukuyama areas), and East Japan Works (Chiba Area).
The ISO 45001 standard, introduced by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in March 2018, is a framework for activities implemented systematically, continuously and voluntarily, including declarations by the operator’s senior management regarding the company’s health and safety policies; investigations of hazards and/or harmful events and measures taken in response thereafter; setting health and safety targets; and preparation, implementation, evaluation and improvement of health and safety plans.
Based on the core principle that “safety takes precedence over everything else,” all employees at the company’s steel mills and manufacturing plants take part in maintaining safe and healthy workplaces. To ensure autonomous and systematic management of such occupational issues companywide, JFE Steel establishes and maintains extensive procedures in compliance with ISO 45001.
JFE Steel is committed to continuously and effectively implementing compliant occupational health and safety management to maintain safe and healthy workplaces.
