Enhancing fulfillment among diverse human resources to improve organizational capacity and drive innovation

Creativity rooted in diverse perspectives is essential for the sustainable growth of the Group. By realizing diversity and constantly striving to create opportunities for better health and education and a broader range of experiences for all employees, we can enhance employee fulfillment, thereby increasing organizational capacity and driving innovation at all points along the value chain.

Shared values

  • Improve employee fulfillment by providing work environments and systems that enable diverse human resources to fully demonstrate their abilities.
  • Create a corporate culture where the human rights of all employees are respected and where employees can flourish as members of the Group.
  • Develop an effective management system to ensure the Group remains trusted by all stakeholders.

Social environment and issues

  • As labor shortages rooted in the declining working-age population become increasingly apparent in Japan, women, elderly people, and foreign nationals will play more active roles in society.
  • Digital technology will continue to develop as the evolution of AI and IoT progress.

Impact on the Group ▲: Risk ●: Opportunity

  • ▲ The inability to secure sufficient human resources to ensure both quality and quantity hinders growth and threatens the sustainability of the Group.
  • ▲ As employees adopt more diverse values, reputational risks will increase if human rights are not fully taken into consideration.
  • ● Digital technology can be used to improve productivity and create new business opportunities.
  • ● Active participation by diverse human resources can create innovation.
