Employee retention
For the Group to continue to enhance its corporate value in a rapidly changing business environment and social conditions, we believe it is important that each one of our employees with diverse values continues to take on challenges in cooperation with their associates and partners based on the Group's mission, our shared values. We will instill the corporate philosophy in employees and provide them with opportunities to put the philosophy into practice and have a sense of growth. In this way, we will increase employment engagement and retention.

To support employees in balancing childcare and their career, the Group has implemented initiatives such as return-to-work support programs, work-life balance consultations, and the promotion of childcare leave for male employees.
In 2025, childcare leave utilization rate was 87.5% for men and 100% for women. - In recognition of these efforts, the Group received the “Platinum Kurumin Certification” in August 2025.
- The Group will continue working to create an even more supportive and comfortable workplace environment.
In addition to fostering an environment in which employees can approach life events such as childcare and caregiving with peace of mind, the Group will further strengthen initiatives that enable employees to take ownership of their growth and careers, including encouraging managers to take leave and expanding flexible work arrangements.

Employee engagement
-
- Efforts to improve engagement
- To increase corporate value, it is crucial that every employee is motivated to work enthusiastically and showcase their full potential. To achieve this goal, the organization and its members need to establish a trust-based relationship that enables them to grow together and contribute to each other. Since 2022, the Group has been regularly conducting employee engagement surveys to qualitatively determine to what extent employees are interested in their jobs and to what extent they are satisfied to improve the organization’s performance, productivity and employees’ motivation and reduce the turnover rate. To establish a robust organization and increase employee motivation to contribute to the organization, we promote communication between superiors and subordinates, including one-on-one meetings. We communicate the Group’s philosophy to employees and foster an organizational culture. Additionally, we take care of employees’ health and growth to increase employee engagement.
Based on the results of these initiatives, we will accurately determine the risks related to the acquisition and retention of human resources and will improve the vitality of employees and the results of the Company and retain excellent human resources who underpin the sustainable growth of business.

- Holding town hall meetings
- We hold meetings where management and employees talk to each other directly. The meetings are held for the president, directors and other officers to directly listen to the opinions of front line employees and quickly reflect these opinions in their management. The meetings are also used to facilitate communication between the top echelons and front line employees.

Increasing awareness of participation in management
-
- Employee stockholding association
- The Group has created an employee stockholding association that encourages employees to purchase Company stock. The Company provides financial incentives to encourage each employee to contribute. The association contributes to increasing employee awareness of participation in management and helps employees form long-term assets.
