Achieving Work-life Balance

We introduced several ways of working, such as flextime, a discretionary work system, and remote working to create an environment where diverse employees can maximize their abilities and always play an active role.

We also pro-actively publicize various childcare systems and encourage employees to take childcare leave, regardless of gender, in order to create an environment in which all employees can work comfortably.

In addition to providing various leave systems, in recent years we have introduced a system for taking paid leave by the hour. We encourage employees to take paid leave, allowing them to achieve a work-life balance.
