Promoting Diversity
Main Activities and Results (Fiscal 2013)
Promoting global recruitment of human resources
NEC employed around 15 international students a year on average from 2006 to 2012. In 2012, NEC conducted activities with the aim of having non-Japanese recruits account for 10% of the planned total number of new graduate recruits. As a result, in fiscal 2014, 47 non-Japanese individuals (representing around 13% of all new recruits) joined the Company as new graduate recruits.
Furthermore, NEC has a system that allows new graduate recruits who do not graduate in March, as is typically the case with Japanese universities, to join the Company in October instead. These recruits include those studying at overseas universities, those with overseas study abroad experience, and international students from abroad. In this manner, NEC has created an environment for recruiting people who possess a diverse array of values.
Promoting employment of people with disabilities
In fiscal 2013, NEC began the shared use of recruitment support services through the contact point NEC Professional Support, Ltd., with the aim of strengthening Group-wide cooperation on the NEC Group’s recruitment of people with disabilities. In the second half of fiscal 2013, NEC Group job interviews were held in the Tokyo and Osaka areas. In other initiatives, we provide assistance such as consultations with NEC Group companies on a case-by-case basis. At the end of fiscal 2013, the ratio of employees with disabilities was 1.91% at NEC Corporation and 1.88% on average for domestic consolidated subsidiaries.
As part of efforts to train and to continue employing people with disabilities, NEC arranges sign language interpreters and PC-based text interpreting for training and recruitment seminars held by the Company or its Group companies when trainees with hearing disabilities are in attendance. Moreover, in the course of daily work at the company, NEC gives consideration to commuting via automobiles and addresses facility and equipment improvements where possible to allow people with disabilities to commute normally to work.
Promoting a Healthy Work-life Balance
NEC is implementing measures to promote a better work-life balance by focusing on the premises of a good work-life balance, including reforming work styles and reducing extensive working hours. In addition, as a new initiative, NEC has commenced “Work Style Innovation” activities. This program aims to drive innovation in business processes and reform work styles with the view to advancing the NEC Group to new growth. As part of implementation measures, NEC aims to share the kaizen (improvement) activities carried out at the individual, team and worksite levels throughout the company. Best practices will be utilized as benchmarks to expand the circle of activities, in an effort to promote actions that lead to a change in awareness of every employee and higher operating efficiency. In other areas, NEC will present on its website examples of improvement both inside and outside the company, the status of activities, and information useful to improving work styles, including training.
