The "Sleep Improvement Program" offered special content with proven effectiveness in improving sleep, such as the "Sleep Standard Deviation for Biz*2" service, which scores sleep status, a sleep seminar by Seiji Nishino, professor of psychiatry at Stanford University School of Medicine and director of the university's Sleep Biorhythm Research Institute, sleep improvement content (e-learning seminar videos) and regular sleep columns to raise awareness about sleep. <Target participants> 300 Nomura Real Estate Group employees (if interested) <Implementation period> November 24, 2023 to February 2, 2024 <Implementation items> 1. Obtaining subjective data: Using "Sleep Standard Deviation for Biz," before and after taking actions to improve sleep 2. Sleep Seminar: Seiji Nishino, Professor of Psychiatry at the Stanford University School of Medicine and Director of the Sleep Biorhythm Research Institute at the same university 3. Sleep improvement content (E-learning seminar videos) 4. Sleep improvement column delivery *2 Sleep visualization web service provided by Brain Sleep: A survey-based sleep visualization service that calculates a standard deviation score by comparing it with the response data of 10,000 employed people. The sleep standard deviation score is made up of a total of five sections, and is a service that visualizes engagement with the company from employees' sleep data and can be used to identify and improve issues. result This program was targeted at Nomura Real Estate Group employees who volunteered to participate in the seminar, and after taking part, they worked to improve their sleep. The results were analyzed before and after the sleep improvements were implemented. As a result, the following changes were confirmed: ❶Improve sleep deviation and sleep time Compared to before the start of this project, the sleep deviation score improved by +2.1 points after the sleep improvement. In addition, the second measurement was taken during the busy season, and although the working hours had increased by +18 minutes, by consciously working on improving sleep, the sleep time increased by +30 minutes, which is a high level that is 9 minutes longer than the average sleep time in a survey of 10,000 people nationwide conducted by Brain Sleep in January 2024. 2. Improve daytime sleepiness and improve sleep quality The two items that had the greatest impact on improving the sleep deviation score above were "reducing the amount of time spent feeling sleepy during the day" and "improving the quality of sleep." Regarding "reducing the amount of time spent feeling sleepy during the day," the average time spent feeling sleepy during the week was 2.4 hours, but this improved to 1.6 hours. The improvement in sleep quality was due to a reduction in the number of days spent browsing a smartphone before going to bed, one of the survey items. In addition, because sleep quality is correlated not only with pre-bedtime behavior but also with sleep habits, a reduction in the number of times the survey item "went to bed at a different time than usual" (not going to bed at irregular times) also contributed to the improvement. [Voices from company representatives] Nomura Real Estate Holdings, Inc. Mr. Nakaoka, Wellness and D&I Promotion Office, Group Human Resources Development Department At Nomura Real Estate Group, the results of an employee survey showed a correlation between sleep and productivity, so we have positioned this as a priority issue for fiscal 2023 and have now implemented a "sleep improvement program" provided by Brain Sleep. Not only were we able to objectively grasp the current situation in numerical terms, but the results showed that by consciously working to improve sleep, we were able to increase "sleep time" and improve "daytime sleepiness" and "sleep quality." We would like to continue working on issues such as sleep for the mental and physical health of our employees. What is the sleep health management consulting provided by Brain Sleep?
