Supplementary explanation regarding the wage gap between men and women

＜Regular employees＞
Because we have introduced a role grade system, there is no wage gap between men and women at the same grade. However, differences do occur due to the low proportion of women in core positions. We will consider and implement measures to increase the ratio of female managers.


Approximately 94% of male non-regular employees are contract employees, while approximately 50% of female employees are part-time employees, resulting in a wage gap.

Career development support for women

We categorize female employees into three levels: managerial, pre-managerial, and junior, and we are strengthening and accelerating career development support tailored to each level.

Specific Initiatives

Holding roundtable discussions for employees on childcare leave

The event is held to provide an opportunity to share information and think about issues such as relieving concerns about childcare, balancing work and childcare, and future careers.

Women's Activity Leading Company

Through columns introducing the work experiences of female managers, we regularly provide hints on the career development path of female employees, such as how to balance work and family life and how to overcome difficult situations.

Dispatch to external training

We continuously send female employees to external training programs to develop their skills and promote their growth. Not only do they acquire knowledge and skills, but they also help expand their external network.

Holding seminars for male employees on balancing work and childcare

Realizing that a change in men's awareness is essential to promoting women's participation in the workforce, we are holding this event to improve the working environment so that each individual can achieve the optimal work-life balance.

External Evaluations

We have obtained certification for promoting women's participation in the workforce implemented by various organizations and prefectures.
