In recent corporate management, there is an urgent need to build an organization that respects diversity. The scope of this effort is not limited to the traditional promotion of female employees, but also encompasses a wide range of issues, such as to promote inclusions of any nationalities, religions, and sexual minorities. The Company is committed to meeting these challenges and fulfilling its social responsibility as a company that supports the physical and mental wellness of people by creating and maintaining a diversity-friendly work environment and promoting inclusive hiring practices.
In the area of human resources development, The Company actively promote employees to key positions, regardless of gender, nationality, or age, but according to their past achievements and preferences. It also actively transfer authorities, creating many opportunities for employees to take on new challenges, such as considering new business opportunities and exploring new business fields. Approximately 98% of the Company’s Directors and managers are mid-career hires.
Although it is possible that the percentage of mid-career hires in management positions will decline in the future due to the promotion of experienced employees to management positions, the Company has not set a voluntary and measurable goal for the promotion of mid-career hires to management positions because the percentage is expected to remain high.
Regarding the promotion of non-Japanese nationals to management positions, the Company recognizes that it will be a necessary challenge in the future to hire non-Japanese nationals as needed, promote them to management positions, and set voluntary and measurable targets, considering its business development.
The Company’s action plan based on the Act on the Promotion of Women's Active Engagement in Professional Life sets a target of increasing the percentage of women in management positions to 9% by 2026 and to 18% by 2030 (3.8% as of December 31, 2022). The Company will measure the effectiveness of its action plan annually starting in March 2023 to achieve these goals, while promoting specific measures such as providing training and e-learning opportunities for female employees who wish to be promoted to management positions.
