Diversity Initiatives
At OBIC, we believe that individual employee growth combined with greater diversity creates a synergistic effect.
Guided by our corporate philosophies of "Company growth starts with employee growth" and "innovation =destruction and creation," we strive to realize the growth of all employees and create environments where they can work long term by providing employee education and establishing human resource systems that facilitate flexible work styles.
Diversity Targets
In accordance with the Act on Promotion of Women's Participation and Advancement in the Workplace, we have set the following targets in our general employer action plan for FY2023 to FY2027.
- 1Achieve a ratio of women in managerial posts of 10% or more by the fiscal year ending March 31, 2028
- 2Achieve a childcare leave acquisition ratio by male employees of 70% or more by the fiscal year ending March 31, 2028
- 3Achieve a paid leave acquisition ratio of 75% or more by the fiscal year ending March 31, 2028
Recruitment and Education Initiatives
All employees are recruited as new graduates and we strive to give them a wide range of knowledge and enhance their skills through a robust education and training system.
In addition to face-to-face training, we have also prepared online training depending on content and the level of the trainee. This enables diverse employees to work on improving their abilities without being confined to a particular work style. Almost all OBIC employees take multiple training courses each year.
Flexible Work Style Initiatives
We promote flexible work styles so that all employees can use their abilities to the fullest.
This involves promoting work styles that best suit employees' lifestyles, including introducing paid holiday that can be used in one-hour increments, permitting short working hours for employees raising children until their children finish the sixth grade of elementary school, introducing staggered work hours, and allowing working from home.
Kurumin Certification・Platinum Kurumin Certification
We have received "Kurumin certification" and "Platinum Kurumin Certification" from the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare for being a company that excels at supporting childcare.
We will continue to create environments where all employees can grow and work long term by supporting a good balance between work and childcare through various initiatives such as expanding and improving systems for childcare leave and short working hours.
