Based on this belief, we promote DE&I, led by the following Basic Policy.
Basic Policy

We respect internationally-accepted human rights standards and diversity, acknowledging differences pertaining to gender, age, nationality, race, ethnicity, skin color, culture, thought, religion, belief, political opinions, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, and the presence or absence of disability. We shall not engage in any type of discrimination or harassment.
- We aim to enable all employees to maximize their talents by fostering a corporate culture where each and every employee fully understands the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion; values diverse ways of thinking and ideas; respects each other; and grows together.

We will continue to contribute to the realization of a society in which all stakeholders can actively participate by promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion in our company, in Japan, and overseas.
How we define diversity, equity & inclusion
- Diversity
Diversity consists of all employees accepting and respecting the differences between them, both surface level differences (such as age, gender, and nationality) and deeper differences (values, experience, abilities, skills, etc.) and working together.
- Equity
Equity consists of fairly providing the resources and opportunities that each of the company’s diverse employees need to achieve autonomous growth and encourage taking on new challenges, fairly evaluating the fruits of their work, and fairly compensating them.
- Inclusion
Inclusion consists of maximizing the output of individuals and organizations by having all employees be true to themselves and tap each other’s strengths.
