Best Workplace Certification
・What is the “D&I Award”?
The D&I Award aims to promote D&I throughout society and to promote D&I as a matter of course through these three objectives: “supporting companies engaged in D&I,” “updating the ideal state of D&I,” and “making it easier to promote D&I.” It is an award that certifies companies that work on diversity and inclusion with the aim of realizing “society”.

In the screening process, we focus on five elements of diversity: gender, LGBT, disability, multicultural coexistence, and
childcare/nursing care. We will position companies that work to solve these five issues and take advantage of diversity as “D&I promotion companies.”
This year, there were 553 entries (including group companies).

Top Inclusive Gunpani Award
Award reason:
“I appreciated the fact that inclusive leadership was practiced, such as the manager who leads the team always being aware of creating a team where employees feel ‘home’. D&I is not an extra effort, but a daily work. It is also incorporated into the activities of the company.The perspective and ingenuity of localizing D&I is unique because we are working on a global scale.”
Best Workplace Recognition criteria:
As a leading D&I company that promotes D&I at a high level not only in Japan but also globally, each employee is actively working as an individual responsible for promoting D&I, in addition to cultivating a corporate culture of D&I. The philosophy of D&I is reflected in every aspect of our services, businesses, and corporate organization, and is spreading outside the company.
