Health management, human rights, human capital strategy, and diversity
■Policy
• The Group defines its employees as its most important asset. We believe that the physical and mental health of our employees leads to the growth and development of our company. In addition, we will promote human capital strategy and diversity while considering the human rights of all people involved in the Company, aiming to become a company and organization that is easy and rewarding to work for, where all employees can maximize their individual abilities and share diverse values.
■Approach
• As targets for the fiscal year ending August 2024, the Company will appoint at least 25% of women to managerial positions and appoint foreign human resources and mid-career recruits to important positions.
• As a company working to support the advancement of women, the Company has been certified by the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare as excellent based on the Act on the Promotion of Women's Active Engagement in Professional Life (commonly known as the "Act to Advance Women's Success") and has acquired the certification mark "Eruboshi" with two stars (second level).
・ Since March 2012, we have continued to make donations to the United Nations WFP’s School Lunch Program. As we aim to develop human resources through our education business, we support these activities and make donations so that as many children as possible around the world can receive education under better conditions. It protects children in poverty from starvation and helps them grow healthily while contributing to increasing school enrolment and expanding educational opportunities.
• There is no difference between the desire people with disabilities have for fun and rewarding work with anyone else. From the perspective of contributing to solving social issues such as supporting mental independence and contributing to regional revitalization through employment, the Company has decided open a “farm” to create a place of work.
