To be a company where diverse human resources can play an active role

In order to achieve our vision of becoming "the most admired company in Japan," we must be a company where a diverse range of human resources can play an active role.

Under the management philosophy of " delivers “fulfilling, enjoyable and pleasant” lifestyles in the world., we have a vision of being "the most admired company in Japan".
Our definition of "the most admired company in Japan" is to have the best performance and growth potential in the industry, and to be benchmarked by other companies and each employee takes pride in his or her profession and in the company to which they belong.
In order to become a leading company with strong influence to change the industry, it is necessary to create a company that can survive forever by steadily increasing its performance through speedy business expansion.
We believe that the most important management resource for building a stable management base and a strong organization is "human resources. By recognizing diversity and allowing everyone to maximize their abilities, both people and the organization can grow further. This is the diversity management of KI, who aims to be "the most admired company in Japan.”

Aiming for Diversity Management

In order to act as a leading company in the industry and to innovate in a variety of situations, it is essential to promote diversity management, in which each and every employee with different backgrounds, including age, gender, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, and faith, brings a variety of perspectives and fully exercises his/her abilities to build an inclusive organization and create the maximum value.

In promoting diversity management, the Diversity Promotion Office, established in 2017 under the direct control of the President's Office, will take the lead in proactively improving internal systems and the workplace environment to provide job satisfaction.
