Work style/Career

In our workplace in Japan, Japanese is mainly used.
Depending on the needs of your job, you may be required to use languages other than Japanese, such as English and Chinese.

Our child care leave is a non-consecutive total of two years of leave that can be taken until the end of the April following the child's start at elementary school. We also offer various other support, including a leave system (Family Support Leave) that can be used for a wide range of purposes, such as care or nursing of family members and a child's school event.

We have business sites across the country. There is also a possibility of working overseas in the future.

We consider transfers as part of employee development. For this reason, we have a system (A Better Dialogue) in which employees directly discuss with their supervisors about their wishes for transfer and future career development every year. We also have systems (e-Challenge and e-Appeal) that respect each employee's willingness to take on new challenges and allow them to submit their requests for transfer to find a place where they can play an active role.

As we operate our business globally, there are opportunities for both administrative and technical employees to go on overseas business trips or be transferred to other countries. There are also opportunities to improve their skills by utilizing an overseas training system (Overseas Trainee System).
