Initiatives for Ensuring Occupational Health and Safety⨋ Management System

We conduct risk assessment and analysis that correspond to the specific circumstancesof accidents that occurred in the previous fiscal year, as well as to social and industrial
trends, in order to formulate annual guidelines for safety and health activities. By
formulating a Company-wide health and safety activities plan based on theseguidelines, we seek to visualize our PDCA cycles, including the analysis of risk factors
and implementation of remedial and preventive actions.

Foundation of Sustainability Management

Our construction site operation relies on the organic connection of the many people working there. Occupational
health and safety are the foundation for the Sanki Engineering Group and are of the highest priority. Under the SankiEngineering Group Basic Health and Safety Principles, we partner with subcontractors in a range of health and safety
activities.

Occupational Health and Safety

As part of our efforts to create comfortable working environments, we updated ouruniform in June 2022. The new uniform was tailored with consideration for the various
needs of all employees working at construction sites, such as fabric type and pocket
location, which we identified through a questionnaire.
To reduce the number of accidents, we conducted all-division safety patrols at
22 construction sites and increased training opportunities for safety managers andworkers. In fiscal 2022, however, the number of accidents increased by two from theprevious year. Many of them were caused by inadequate operational procedures(insufficient risk assessment) or human error.
In view of the accidents in fiscal 2022 and the required responses to the Revised
Labor Standards Law scheduled for enforcement in 2024, we will work in fiscal 2023 on
implementing appropriate risk assessments based on job reports and work proceduresand provide education related to the revised law.

SANKI REPORT 202359︱︱SocialFoundation of Sustainability Management ︱Occupational Health and Safety⨋ S afety Conventions and Safety Patrols

Every fiscal year, each branch, branch office, and division of Sanki Engineering holds safetyconventions at 11 domestic sites and 2 overseas sites in June, the preparatory month for
National Safety Week. Subcontractors from around the world participate in the convention.
Executive officers from Japan, including our president, attended the convention,
which took place at one of our sites in Thailand*. Employees and subcontractors who
demonstrated outstanding efforts and achievements in safety management receivedawards. We also conduct special joint safety patrols, during which the president anddirectors tour 26 construction sites in the summer and before and after year-end.

⨋ H ealth and Safety Training

For Group employees and for staff employed by subcontractors, Sanki Engineering
provides training led by in-house instructors or at designated training institutes. When
accepting new foreign national technical intern trainees from their employers, weuse standardized criteria for ensuring safety at all sites and carry out interviews by ouremployees to comply with these criteria. We also organize joint training sessions withthe Sanki Health and Safety Cooperative Association.
In fiscal 2022, as in the previous year, we focused on conducting special training
sessions using full harness-type equipment with the aim of preventing falls, in view ofregulatory revisions. Sessions involving skill practice were conducted face to face bythoroughly implementing COVID-19 prevention measures. The mode and methods oftraining are determined by considering the risk of serious accidents and the importanceof the topic. Online training is conducted to mitigate the burden of trainers byconnecting multiple sites.

In fiscal 2022, there were five accidents, an increase of two from fiscal 2021. A detailed
analysis of the circumstances of these accidents revealed they were mostly the resultof shortcomings in operational procedures, so a continuous effort will be required topromote thorough compliance with the rules and raise the level of our activities by
sharing information.
