Improvement of operational efficiency and productivity

Recently, every element of society has been increasingly digitized. In the real estate industry, digitization is shifting from the conventional model that focused on improving productivity through laborsaving and increased efficiency of internal business processes to the model that aims to create added value by combining digital technology with the business itself. Based on this recognition of the environment, we have included the promotion of digital transformation(DX) as one of the sustainability strategies in our business plans, and we aim to improve our services and secure competitive advantage through the use of digital technology.

Currently, we still have many business processes involving paper-based business operations and manual data entry. Therefore, we plan to start from implementing and establishing the digitization of analog information and digitalization of business processes in the first half of our business plan (Phase I), as an effort to bridge the gap between the current status and what we aim to achieve.

Create a pleasant work environment

The Company strives to create a pleasant work environment so that all employees can play active roles equally according to their abilities, including enhancing support systems, such as leave programs for childcare and family nursing, and actively hiring from the senior generation.
We will consider introducing a flextime system in the future to support employees to balance work and private life.

Healthcare of our employees

The healthcare of our employees is important for us. Our policy is that all employees take annual health checkup, and the expenses are entirely covered by the Company. We have also established a system to provide a fee coverage for the spouses of our employees.

Promoting utilization of paid leave

The Company has a consecutive leave system where employees can take a leave up to five days consecutively once a year, which allows them to refresh mentally and physically and improve productivity.Together with the anniversary leave system, which was introduced in 2020, we have a unique leave system that helps to achieve a paid leave utilization rate of 70% or more, which is one of our KPIs.

Diversification of human resources

We believe that incorporating diverse values in the Company will lead to the development of the Company in a society that is becoming increasingly diverse and complex, and we are working to diversify our human resources throughout our organization by encouraging diverse human resources to autonomously grow in the right places, regardless of the status of new graduates or experienced hires, gender, or age. The Company aims to achieve five-year average of 1:1 for the male-to-female ratio in the recruitment of new graduates.In recent years, female employees have accounted for approximately half of all employees below the managerial level, backed by the development of a work environment that takes work-life balance into consideration, and opportunities for them to play an active role in the Company have been expanding. At the same time, we are promoting diversification of our human resources with hiring experienced personnel and active use of the senior generation.
