In order to create new value and pleasure which are the goals of “MITSUBA VISION 2030”, it is essential to accept diversity, respect ideas and values, and realize diversity that includes open exchanges regardless of position or organization. MITSUBA Group has been actively hiring and promoting diverse human resources such as foreigners, and people with disabilities, and actively improving our workplace environment. Moving forward, in addition to our initiatives thus far, we will promote further career support and work style reforms and implement personnel measures that utilize the diversity of our employees in our business activities and internal culture reforms.
In order to support employees who are raising children, MITSUBA has established a “shortened working hours system for childcare” that can be used until their child reaches the second grade of elementary school. In addition to annual paid leave, MITSUBA has also established a “life support leave system” that can be taken for situations such as caring for a family member or hospital visits, infertility treatment, etc. Similar to childcare, for employees who are caring for a family member, we have established a “shortened working hours system”, “long-term care leave system”, and “long-term care absence system.” These systems support a balance between work and family.
In April 2007, MITSUBA Group established “Ohisama Garden”, an in-house daycare center for MITSUBA Group employees, as part of initiatives to create a work-friendly environment for employees who are raising children. MITSUBA believes that an environment where children can be raised with care leads to a sense of security, which in turn leads to the peace of mind we provide to people around the world. Many female employees return to work after taking the maternity leave and childcare leave system. MITSUBA is promoting the social advancement of women throughout our company.
Regular meeting
MITSUBA launched the “Women's Empowerment Promotion Project” in September 2022 as a company-wide project directly managed by top management and has been working on it ever since. The members selected from each division within the company exchange opinions across division and job boundaries to consider and propose measures to create a workplace environment, corporate system, and communication environment that are easy for women to work in and make recommendations and proposals to top management through the human resources meetings and other forums. The proposed measures are reflected in revisions to systems and rules, contributing to the improvement of systems and culture within MITSUBA. In April 2024, we started to revamp our objectives and project members and promote activities to achieve “Career Advancement and Skill Development for Women.”

MITSUBA Group is expanding our business globally, so for the purpose of sharing values and encouraging the standardization of management skills, MITSUBA expands opportunities for non-Japanese human resources to interact in various situations such as “Global Leader Development Training” and human resource development through practical training in Japan. Furthermore, since last year, we have been using the intra-company transfer system to accept human resources from affiliated overseas Group companies and develop human resources through practical work functions at the Head Office. We will continue to actively utilize and promote overseas human resources.
MITSUBA has established a special subsidiary, AMCO Corporation, and has been promoting the employment of persons with disabilities. As working styles become increasingly diversified, we have established the MITSUBA Group Disabled Persons Employment Committee, and will not only proactively recruit persons with disabilities, but also work to create a comfortable working environment for them.
AMCO
At MITSUBA, the retirement age is at 60 years old. However, we have a “post-retirement re-employment system” that allows employees to continue working if they wish to do so. Every year, many employees continue to fill active roles in various workplaces even after their retirement, making use of the skills and knowledge they have cultivated over many years.
