Conducting LGBTQ+ Training
We provide training (group and web-based) for employees to deepen their understanding of LGBTQ+ issues, and a total of 42,000 employees have participated in the training by the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024. After attending the training, employees who request it are given an original sticker as proof of being an ally (a person who supports LGBTQ+), and can also put the ally symbol on their business cards, thereby showing their support of LGBTQ+ and providing psychological reassurance to those who identify as such. We strive to ensure that each person working in the same workplace recognizes each other's diverse personalities and can maximize their abilities while engaging in friendly competition.
Internal Communications through the Portal Site
[Message from Leadership in the Internal Newsletter]
In the company newsletter distributed through the company's portal site, our Founding Chairman and President have both shared messages emphasizing the importance of understanding and supporting LGBTQ+ individuals. This aligns with our commitment to fostering diversity. By doing so, we are reinforcing our dedication to creating a respectful and supportive environment where all employees can work confidently and contribute to the company's shared goals,
[Featuring Related Content on the Dedicated Page]
On the same portal site, a dedicated page has been created under the supervision of the certified NPO "ReBit" to deepen understanding of LGBTQ+ topics. The page introduces basic knowledge about LGBTQ+, training videos, and key points that employees should keep in mind in their daily work and communication. Additionally, it outlines our welfare benefits system, which supports a work environment where employees can work with peace of mind. Through these efforts, we are committed to creating a workplace where all employees respect each other's diversity and can thrive as their authentic selves.
