Definition and Methodology of Water Withdrawal
  • Water withdrawal refers to the total volume of water withdrawn from external water sources for operational use.
  • Water withdrawal data are converted from metric tons to cubic meters, assuming a water density of 1t = 1m³.
  • The majority of the Group’s water withdrawal occurs at France Bed Co., Ltd., and therefore the data are representative of the Group’s water usage.

[ Reporting Scope ]
For Human Resource Development, data cover France Bed Co., Ltd.
All other indicators cover the France Bed Group (including consolidated subsidiaries).
[ Reporting Period ]
April to March of the following year for all fiscal years.
  • *1 The calculation uses the number of female managers divided by the total number of managers, with individuals holding concurrent positions counted as one person.
  • *2 The calculation uses the average annual income of male employees and that of female employees.
  • *3 The ratio represents the percentage of male employees who took childcare leave, etc.

Work-related accident statistics are presented using two indicators: Frequency Rate and Severity Rate, together with the number of lost workdays.

・Frequency Rate
Lost Time Incident Rate (LTIR) is defined as the number of work-related injuries or fatalities that result in at least one day of lost work time, divided by the total number of hours worked during the period, and multiplied by 1,000,000.

[ Formula ]
Frequency Rate = (Number of fatalities and injuries due to work-related accidents ÷ Total working hours) × 1,000,000

（Note）
Numerator: If the same person has multiple work related accidents, each accident is counted separately.
Denominator: Total working hours include regular and overtime hours; vacation, sick leave, and holidays are excluded.

・Severity Rate
Severity Rate is defined as the number of lost workdays resulting from work-related injuries or fatalities, divided by the total number of hours worked during the period, and multiplied by 1,000.

【Formula】
Severity Rate = (Number of lost workdays due to work-related accidents ÷ Total working hours) × 1,000

（Note）
Numerator: Lost workdays are counted as calendar days the employee is unable to work starting from the day after the incident.
Denominator: Total working hours include regular and overtime hours; vacation, sick leave, and holidays are excluded
