Human Capital Strategy

Basic Approach

We regard our employees as “human capital,” and We aim to maximize the value of our employees through proactive human capital investment . We believe that by creating workplaces where employees respect diverse values and can demonstrate initiative and collaborate, we will be able to sustainably enhance corporate value. To foster an environment where diverse employees can fully demonstrate their abilities, we are promoting the inclusion of women, persons with disabilities, foreign nationals, and mid-career hires, while also striving to develop workplaces that enable flexible workstyles aligned with the value perceptions of each employee.

Ideal business model for 2030
