Basic Policy

Our company holds that maintaining and improving employee health and engagement is the foundation of well-being. By building upon that foundation and promoting diversity and inclusion, we aim to achieve greater diversity in values, thereby contributing to the happiness of all employees and to the success of the company.

Employee Engagement

We believe that improving engagement for each and every employee leads to growth for both the individual and the company. We have set employee engagement as an indicator for measuring sustainable growth and are working to improve it, as it illustrates the extent to which employees connect with the company’s purpose and organizational culture, and their enthusiasm for their work.

Career Paths Suited to Various Working Styles

After undergoing education and training, engineers that join the Company as regular employees are assigned to a suitable group and placed with clients. Employees then have multiple career paths available to them, from remaining in the field until retirement, to becoming experts and training managers, or entering middle managerial positions. We also offer a continued employment program and job change assistance program, and a system that supports changes in employment when an engineer and client both wish for it. We strive to create an environment where employees can work with peace of mind.
