Capacity development in our company is based on the “development of abilities by employees for themselves with self-responsibility in consideration of their own future.” Under this concept, in the short term, the employees set their annual capacity development goals and work to achieve them in the Management by Objectives System and the Performance Appraisal System. They also seek capacity development through OJT by setting individual targets in business operations and increasing practical experiences. By repeating this procedure every year, employees improve their abilities. In the mid- and long-term, the employees understand the roles and actions they are expected to play by attending various position-based training sessions, and set their capacity development/career development goals individually according to the roles and actions. They then aim at gaining career/self-actualization by preparing and implementing action plans (participation in training, self-enlightenment, etc.) through development meetings with their bosses.Capacity development in our company is based on the “development of abilities by employees for themselves with self-responsibility in consideration of their own future.” Under this concept, in the short term, the employees set their annual capacity development goals and work to achieve them in the Management by Objectives System and the Performance Appraisal System.

We put our energies into developing human resources that can engage in business globally. Since fiscal 2008, we have provided training in Japan to systematically develop management executives for overseas affiliate companies. We also enrich global training, such as language training, cross-cultural management, human resources management, and internationally related operations. Moreover, we introduce overseas trainee system for general management employees with an aim that the employees accumulate experience of operations/life in overseas as trainees for a fixed period of time, provide practical training in overseas factories for all new employees, and so on. We will enrich employee training of "SWS WAY," which is our concept of approach to the SWS-style work (Manufacturing/Human Resources Development) in the Group Companies in Japan and overseas.
