Safety. Safety at work is a major benefit (riyaku) sought from the kami by business people who attend shrines at new Year and other significant times as official representatives of their company. It is common for large and small Japanese enterprises to identify a tutelary shrine to which corporate donations are made and from which a priest may be summoned to perform ceremonies in the business premises.
