Job Satisfaction and Employment

Basic concept of Human Resources Management (HRM)

Based on a good labor-management relationship, labor and management work to balance respective responsibilities in an effort to ensure stable employment and to maintain and steadily improve working conditions from a mid-to-long-term perspective. In addition, Toyota Boshoku promotes the development of human resources by conducting evaluations that use standards reflecting our core values and also provides fair and honest conditions for all members.

Promote “innovation of vibrant work style”

“Innovation of vibrant work style” refers to the Toyota Boshoku group’s challenge to reform our organization and culture. In order to quantitatively confirm the results of vibrant work style innovation and vibrant working by our company members, we have introduced the KPI on vibrant work environment as a company-wide metric, and with an aim to further improvements, we are working to develop more flexible, efficient, and creative work rules, and to create a workplace where company members can enjoy their work, and feel fulfilled by their jobs.
We will continue working to promote an even higher level of vibrant work style innovation, both to achieve our 2025 Mid-Term Business Plan, and to further empower our company members to feel vibrant and fulfilled.

Treatment of fixed-term company members and temporary workers

We employ fixed-term company members in compliance with labor-related laws and regulations, and treat them appropriately in accordance with the employment rules and various regulations, including various types of social insurance and leave as stipulated by law. In addition, the employment of temporary workers is handled in accordance with the Worker Dispatching Act, Guidelines for Measures to be Taken by Clients, and other laws and regulations.

Graduate and mid-career recruitment

In hiring graduates, our policy is to recruit highly capable individuals with diverse attributes and values in an active and stable, sustainable manner.
In terms of mid-career recruitment, in order to achieve our Mid-Term Business Plan, we are hiring people with advanced specialized skills, such as digital transformation (DX) and environment-related technologies.
Additionally, we are building an environment where the same opportunities for training and promotion are available to all company members, regardless of when or how they joined the company. In the future, we will focus on implementing new policies, alongside our regular work acquiring talented people with different backgrounds, experience, and knowledge, who can bring added value to our company’s business.

Turnover

About 80% of employees who leave the company after less than three years of employment are regular employees. To address this issue, we provide new employees with "assignments that take into account the individual’s wishes, personal aptitude, and subject major," "three-way meetings with supervisors and senior company members using a training record chart," and "individual counseling by a new recruit training supervisor," as well as "communication training" for direct supervisors. In addition, we are working to improve the retention rate by means of individual interviews with those who wish to leave.
