Handing down skills and maintaining quality

Maruesu Koun is involved in various activities company wide, at each location, and individually to practice 3S+a and to enforce continuing safety awareness.

KY (Danger Prediction) activity

KY (Danger Prediction) activity is a form of regular training to share and remind possible danger in daily driving and operations by using videos and slides, and discussing the risk factors. Accidents and incidents can occur any time during any usual driving and handling operations with even a slight inattention. We strive to continue zero accidents through these activities and being aware of danger around us at all times.

Close-to-accident reports

All employees are required to submit each month at least one close-to-accident incidents from daily driving, operations, or any personal encounters. Incidents are written in a given form for everyone to share the incidents so everyone can enhance awareness to safety.

Safety meeting

Safety meetings are held once every month at each locations to discuss and share information about accidents, incidents, and safety to improve equipment and procedures.

Passenger training

Passenger training is a form of regular training where a qualified trainer rides with the trainee to confirm basic rules and driving, and point out any risk factors in the operation to improve driver quality.

Safety patrol

Safety patrol is a monthly activity done at each location to check daily checkup and operational procedures so any flaws and dangerous actions can be improved. The company president’s safety patrol is conducted regularly as well.

Central Safety Committee

Central Safety Committee is formed by the company president, board members and union officials that meet regularly to share information about accidents and incidents, KY activities at each location, close-to-accident reports, passenger training, and safety patrol, and discuss and decide safety activity policies based on safety meetings.

Safety declaration

This is held once a year to commemorate no-accident drivers (5 years, 10 years, 15 years, 20 years, 25 years, 30 years, etc.). An employee representative shows commitment to safety. There will be active discussion held through safety activity reports and eco-driving reports from each location for the year.
