“Global Career Track” to develop candidates for next generation of executive managers
In 2019, we introduced a “Global Career Track” position for employees with the potential to be the next generation of the Company’s executive managers, once they have experienced different kinds of work and gained a comprehensive understanding of the management environment both in Japan and overseas. The career track includes managerial personnel, who are active as managers and are close to top management, and expert personnel, who possess a high level of expertise and are actively engaged in the company’s medium- to long-term growth. The aim is to offer a career path that aligns with the career ambitions and characteristics of different employees. We have also established area career track and general clerk career track positions in order to realize a work-life balance that is compatible with our employees’ diverse work styles and career aspirations.

Purpose-Based Training
- Overseas Training System
In 2018, we have established an overseas training system that allows employees who are engaged in work closely related to overseas subsidiaries to conduct work and technical training at our overseas bases or overseas education and research institutes. Through several months of training at overseas factories and sales bases, we are promoting the acquisition of work experience and interaction between employees.
- SDGs Training
In January 2020, SDGs training was held, and more than a dozen staff members from the management department of the Head Office participated.
We invited an outside lecturer to deepen our understanding of the essence of SDGs by utilizing SDGs card games.

For the purpose of improving the technology of overseas factories, we accept foreign technical intern trainees from Thai and Chinese factories, share manufacturing technology and provide technical guidance.
