Nisso Group Internal Environment Improvement Policy
As the environment changes at an unprecedented rate, the Nisso Group believes that a workplace environment that respects the diverse values and individuality of human resources is important for the sustainable growth of society.
Based on our founding philosophy of "Nurturing and Bringing Out the Best in People", the Nisso Group is committed to protecting workplace safety, as well as physical and mental health, and practices the creation of workplaces where all employees can have dreams and a sense of fulfillment. In addition, the Group will respect the human rights of all people, including women, the elderly, foreign nationals, and people with disabilities, and work to build a healthy work environment free from discrimination.
02Basic View
While the accelerating declining birthrate and aging population in Japan poses risks, the Nisso Group also recognizes this as a business opportunity linked to the need for recruiting and supporting the success of “people.”
Based on the Nisso Group’s “Internal Environment Improvement Policy,” we aim for sustainable business growth by building an environment in which diverse human resourcesl—including women, the elderly, foreign nationals, and people with disabilities—can thrive.
It is important to foster a corporate culture where diverse employees can autonomously choose work-styles suited to them.
We believe such a culture leads to a virtuous cycle that promotes engagement, secures outstanding human resources, and enhances productivity. We recognize that realizing this will contribute to further enhancing the Nisso Group’s corporate value.
03Aiming to improve the diversity ratio
In February 2025, the Nisso Group revised the indicators and targets under our “Internal Environment Improvement Policy.” We updated the implementation issues to “Promotion of DE&I (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion)” and newly established the “diversity ratio” as a key indicator. The target is set at achieving a 40% level by FY 3/2031.
With the declining labor population and the rising proportion of the elderly in Japan, the Nisso Group’s management environment is undergoing significant changes. As of the end of March 2025, the “diversity ratio” (women, senior employees, foreign nationals, and persons with disabilities combined) accounted for 31.9% of all employees. By increasing this ratio, the Nisso Group aims to strengthen organizational resilience and achieve sustainable business growth.

04Promotion of Women's Participation and Advancement
In order to achieve the sustainable growth of the Nisso Group, we believe that it is important to create a workplace where all employees can have dreams and a sense of fulfillment, and to create "a place where diverse human resources can flourish". We aim to increase the ratio of female managers in the Nisso Group in order to promote the active participation of diverse human resources.
In addition, the Nisso Group aims to strengthen our organizational capabilities by investing in human resources for the "creation of a comfortable workplace" where diverse human resources, including women, can work comfortably.

05Active Participation of People with Disabilities
Aiming for the success of each and every employee, the SS, who provide guidance and support to employees, are qualified as job coaches (company-registered workplace adaptation supporters), utilize internal systems such as the leader system, the Meister system, and the commendation system, and strive everyday to develop abilities and increase motivation tailored to the qualities of each employee with disabilities. From April 2023, Nisso Pure has introduced AS (Assistant Staff) to the new leader system, making it possible for CS employees to be promoted to SS employees. Currently, 4 CS employees have been selected to support SS in the workplace and provide guidance to CS employees.

06Active Participation of Older People
Nikon Nisso Prime Corporation was established on January 6, 2020 as a joint venture between NISSO CORPORATION and Nikon Corporation. Its mission is to "create a society where people can continue to work" by developing and securing employment opportunities for older employees of the Nikon Group, and conducting research and development on a framework that enable older people in Japanese society to continue working.
