D&I—the foundation of innovation and communication
The Sekisui House Group is committed to its Global Vision, “Make Home the Happiest Place in the World.” For employees, “home” can also refer to their workplace or the company they work for. To ensure that this “home” is a place of happiness, it is imperative to establish an environment where psychological safety allows individuals to thrive as themselves, where relationships are built on trust, and where mechanisms are in place to foster personal growth and career fulfillment. Therefore, we believe that the Company’s crucial mission is to support each employee in living a fulfilled and happy life.
Our Group places great importance on the practice of innovation and communication, which is intrinsically linked with Diversity and Inclusion (D&I). This is because when people with different values and experiences—regardless of gender, age, nationality, or disabilities—come together and share opinions, it energizes communication and spurs the generation of new ideas and solutions. Based on this belief, we prioritize dialogue among employees, creating an environment where everyone feels confident to voice their opinions. We are committed to sincerely acknowledging each individual’s input and fostering a corporate culture that respects and values uniqueness. Additionally, we are dedicated to creating environments that embrace employee needs and feedback, and developing programs that empower employees to pursue their passions and goals. This approach aims to enhance human capital value through employee autonomy and aligned efforts.
We strive to build an organization where employees can discover their potential, grow alongside their colleagues, and experience greater fulfillment. We will continue to nurture autonomy and diversity, creating a workplace where these qualities can thrive.
Creating social value for the future
Building a better future requires reevaluating societal structures and pursuing fair and inclusive initiatives. We are committed to promoting diversity and inclusion, eliminating bias and discrimination in hiring and promotion processes, and fostering a culture that respects diversity and inclusiveness. We ensure all employees have equal opportunities for recognition and advancement.
Regarding human rights, we are dedicated to respecting the rights of all stakeholders potentially affected by our business activities, including those within our supply chain. We identify and address business-related challenges and strive to earn and maintain trust by offering products and services that respect human rights.
These efforts are essential steps toward achieving a sustainable society, and we are committed to working hand-in-hand with our stakeholders to tackle these challenges. Our Group is committed to promoting initiatives that enhance societal engagement, embracing the challenge to contribute to the planet and society, and creating enduring social value for the future.
