Human Resource Development

In order to create the world’s No. 1 products through WIN-WIN relationships, all employees, who are the greatest assets of the Tokyo Seimitsu Group, must accept diverse values, draw out each other’s strengths, and grow autonomously. In order to support the growth of such employees, the Group will provide programs such as education and training, opportunities to take on challenges on the ground, and work to create a workplace environment where diverse human resources can feel rewarding.

Human Resource Development Policy

The mission of the Group includes: “Growing together with partners and customers by collaborating technology, knowledge and information to create the world’s No. 1 products,” and “WIN–WIN relationships create the world’s No. 1 products.”

 

To fulfill this mission, we need employees who can:

Gain a high level of trust by facing customers’ issues and solving them

Accept diverse values and see things from the other person’s point of view to draw out mutual strengths and cooperate with each other

Connect their own ideas to technical and business innovations, aim for high goals, and grow autonomously

 

The Group supports the growth of its employees, who are the most important asset, by creating a work environment and implementing measures as described below:

Provide educational programs, including training and education, according to the growth stage of individual employees

Provide employees with opportunities to take on challenges in the workplace and support through communication with their supervisors

Promote various measures and create an environment in which diverse human resources can feel fulfilled in their work and can play an active role

Education and Training

The Company has established a variety of training programs tailored to the abilities and roles of each employee, and has incorporated them into our human resource development system. We perform “common training” for employees to acquire the basic knowledge and business skills required throughout the Company, “level-specific training” for employees to acquire the skills required for each career level, and department-specific training for employees to acquire the highly specialized individual skills required for specific organizations and tasks.

Goal Setting and Evaluation

It is important to set goals in human resource development. We believe that doing so allows employees to clearly understand the meaning and purpose of their work, and improve their skills and level of motivation in the process of achieving them. At the beginning of the fiscal year, we hold a goal-setting interviews in which managers confirm the goals* set by employees. Furthermore, mid-term interviews are conducted during the fiscal year to confirm degree of achievement, provide an opportunity for supervisors give advice according to the employee’s situation, and, in some cases, revise goals. Over the following year, supervisors evaluate the results of efforts to achieve the goals to determine the efforts to be taken during the next fiscal year. 

* Goals to be realized during the relevant period and goals to be realized over the long term in the future

Award Systems

By establishing a variety of award programs, the Company aims to nurture the creativity and spirit of challenge among our employees and increase their motivation.

In order for the Group to achieve significant growth in a rapidly changing environment, it is important for employees to work with high motivation, improve productivity, generate innovative ideas, and deliver high added value to customers.

In the survey, we will carry out measures to improve engagement by conducting surveys on the following points:

Whether employees are able to demonstrate their strengths and feel motivated at work

Whether employees trust each other and activate internal communication

Whether employees are familiar with the Company and have a strong attachment to the Company
