NYK has implemented a revised work plan effective from January 12, 2021.


- Outline of revised work plan

Affected Employees: Head office and branch office employees

Period: January 12, 2021, until further notice

Workstyle: The company has ordered all staff to work from home during this period. Staff may be required to work at the office for as short a time as possible only if their managers determine it necessary for them to be at the office.

Other revisions to the workstyle are indicated below.

Meetings with customers: Face-to-face meetings will be prohibited and replaced by online meetings as much as possible utilizing applications such as Microsoft Teams. Our company staff may visit customers’ offices, but only after receiving permission from the customers in advance and giving utmost consideration to the importance and necessity of the matter. We ask customers to refrain from visiting our office with the exception of special cases.

Domestic and overseas business trips are to be avoided.

The NYK Group considers prevention of the spread of Covid-19 and the health and safety of the company’s employees to be of utmost importance and will continue to operate vessels safely to ensure the stable transportation of energy, resources, and materials that support people's lives.

We appreciate the understanding and cooperation of our customers and other concerned parties in this regard.
