Based on our concept of enabling human resources to perform and grow, Sekisui Chemical Group strives to develop human resources. In 2005, human resources was incorporated as one of the three prominences of CSR, based on our belief that "human resources are an important motive force driving advancement of CSR management."
In addition, based on the idea that "employees are precious assets bestowed on us by society," Sekisui Chemical Group strives to create environments where employees can do their jobs with a sense of safety and security, and that help them aim for self-fulfillment through developing their own skills and growing as professionals utilizing their own individual characteristics. We believe that such efforts will lead to the continual development of our organization and business, and for this purpose we provide our employees with opportunities to take on challenges on their own and support individuals who can act on their own, with their own ideas.
Furthermore, as the globalization of its businesses accelerates, the employees who work at Sekisui Chemical Group are growing more diverse as well. We are advancing efforts to increase opportunities for more people to thrive on the global stage and to promote creation of various working styles and safe and secure work environments, respecting the diversity, personalities, and individuality of our employees in each region.
In the future as well, Sekisui Chemical Group will aim to achieve growth for both the organization and its employees, with a firm awareness of the individual learning and growth of our employees.
