Basic Strategy on Human Capital

Our group corporate stance is to be a company that has and will continue to work with and nurture "people". To this end, we view human resources as human "assets" and have created a corporate culture centered on our people. In order to continue to be an attractive company for both our customers and employees, we aim to create a vibrant and energetic organizational culture by fostering people who can feel the changing trends of the times, continue to change themselves, think and act on their own initiative, and take on new challenges.

Human Resource Development Policy

Based on the long-term management vision of “Aiming to be a 100-year-old company,” the Group positions maximizing the value of human capital as one of its most important social initiatives. Aiming for “both company and individual growth,” the Group will promote various measures related to human resource development in order to support self-motivated employees who can think and act on their own and develop truly professional human resources who possess high levels of expertise and broad insight.

• Human Resources who Drive the Sustainable Growth of the Organization
  In order to achieve sustainable corporate growth, it is important to build a strong management foundation. In order to build such a foundation the Group recognizes that it needs human resources who can make decisions and drive business forward from multiple perspectives, including business, customers, operations, and finances. For example, in order to expand business domains in which we have the largest market share, it is important not only to increase our share in existing markets, but also to take on initiatives to increase our share in new domains. To implement these strategies, we need human resources with the leadership skills to make important and difficult decisions regarding such things as co-creation with partners, M&As, and investment decisions.
  In order to develop such human resources, the Group provides education and training aimed at strengthening organizational capabilities, improving individual abilities, and strengthening internal control. We have prepared a human resource development program in which employees can acquire the skills required for their positions from a range of training options, including conceptualization skills such as vision formation and decision-making/judgment, interpersonal skills such as leadership and subordinate development, and work execution skills such as specialized knowledge and time management.
• Specialized Human Resources for Enhanced Adaptability to Business Changes
  The Group recognizes that securing specialized human resources is essential to responding to medium- to long-term changes in the external environment and supporting the expansion of business performance and increased corporate value. For example, in order to consolidate models, expand product lineups, and expand recurring businesses, it is necessary to strengthen product development capabilities using new technologies such as VR, AI, and IoT, as well as acquire the expertise necessary to make optimal proposals tailored to customers’ industries and operations. Moreover, as we continue to expand globally, we will need adaptable human resources who, in addition to possessing accumulated knowledge and technical capabilities, have the ability to take the laws, regulations, cultures, and values of various countries into consideration.
  In order to develop and secure such human resources, we provide education and training aimed at strengthening business strategies and improving specialized skills. In addition, to support employees’ voluntary efforts, we provide application type training, which includes group training, e-learning, and correspondence study. Through these training programs, we will focus on reskilling and expanding abilities, and support the growth of individuals.

Policies to Enhance the Workplace Environment

In order to maximize the value of human capital, we recognize that it is essential to create a work environment that leverages diversity. By promoting well-being management and work-life balance, we value the independence and creativity of each employee, as well as coexistence and co-prosperity with each employee. In addition, we will ensure workplace safety, protect the physical and mental health as well as privacy of employees, and strive to create a sound work environment where individuality is respected.

• Respect for Human Rights
  The premise behind all the Company’s business activities is respect for the human rights of all people involved in our business. We established a Human Rights Policy in 2021 and are working to develop a human rights due diligence system. In line with this, we are working to improve and expand our internal whistleblowing system in order to respond appropriately to human rights risks. We will continue to promote initiatives to prevent human rights violations and improve countermeasures.
  For details on our initiatives related to respect for human rights, please refer to the      “Human Rights”   and      “Human Rights Due Diligence”   sections of our website.
• Promotion of Diversity and Work-Life Balance
  In order to continuously grow by adapting flexibly to changes in the environment and society surrounding the Group’s business, it is important to incorporate the diverse perspectives and values of employees and create an environment in which both employees and the company can grow.
  The Group proactively works to promote women’s career development, and from the perspective of securing diverse human resources, implements measures that include hiring people with disabilities, senior workers, and foreign nationals.Moreover, from the perspective of realizing work style reforms and promoting work-life balance, we are implementing various measures that enable employees to choose diverse and flexible working styles.

• Ensuring Occupational Safety and Health
  In order to create a work environment where all employees can feel safe, secure, and comfortable, we are taking various measures to raise awareness of occupational safety and health among employees. In addition to raising each employee’s awareness of occupational safety and health through basic education when they join the company and AED installation and training, we are also implementing activities to ensure safety and disaster prevention, as well as prevent work-related accidents.
  For details on our initiatives related to occupational safety and health, please refer to the      “Occupational Safety and Health”  section of our website.
• Implementing Health Management
  The Group believes that the physical and mental health of employees is one of the essential foundations that support business, and in order to strategically promote Health Management, we established a Health Management Declaration in 2017. Under an organizational structure in which the President & Representative Director is responsible for health management, we are implementing various initiatives based on the Health Management Strategy Map.
  As a result of these efforts, Amano has been certified as a Health & Productivity Management Outstanding Organization 2024 (Large Enterprise Category (White 500)).
  For details on our initiatives related to health management, please refer to the      “Health Management”   section of our website.
• Improving Engagement
  With the aim of creating an environment in which all employees can work cheerfully and with a sense of purpose, we introduced an engagement survey in FY2023. By visualizing engagement, we will continue to work on improvement activities to create a better workplace.
• Further Strengthening Compliance
  As a company that is trusted and valued by all stakeholders, the Group has established the Corporate Code of Ethics in order to ensure compliance and maintain a sound organization. We distribute this code of ethics to all employees to raise awareness of fraud and violations of laws and regulations. Moreover, based on our Basic Policy of Compliance and Compliance Rules, we are engaged in a variety of activities to ensure thorough compliance awareness.
