Viewing people as its greatest management resource, the NEC Group has been investing in its people by transforming systems and improving environments in ways that maximize the capabilities of employees and organization.
An NEC Group management policy in Mid-term Management Plan 2025 is integrating purpose, strategy and culture to maximize corporate value. Engagement scores are positioned as a core indicator for culture.
The NEC Group Code of Conduct strictly prohibits people at NEC from acting with prejudice on the grounds of race, belief, age, social position, family origin, nationality, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, and gender identity, as well as physical or mental disability, and strictly prohibits actions that belittle individuals, including bullying, harassment, child labour, and forced labour. Furthermore, the NEC Group Human Rights Policy sets out and advocates detailed policies for its initiatives on human rights based on the NEC Way, and explicitly states that in all types of corporate activities the Company must respect the individuality of each person and not act in any way that may harm their dignity.
One of NEC’s management strategies is to firmly establish a culture that is truly based on inclusion and diversity in this way. The Company believes this to be a source of innovation, and it is promoting initiatives.
To realize corporate growth and personal growth and happiness in accordance with its Human Resources (HR) Policy, NEC develops and fairly evaluates personnel, who drive the growth of its businesses. It also works to create an environment where employees can work with ease and comfort and thereby display a high level of performance.
With a view to realizing our Human Resources (HR) Policy, we are rapidly responding to change and accelerating the establishment of systems that enable the timely assignment of personnel to appropriate positions.
We are reorganizing the roles of the People and Culture Division, which spearheads the human resource strategies that support business strategies. We have prepared a human resource model and defined the roles and responsibilities of each human resource business partner, shared service, and center of excellence. The center of excellence plays a leading role in formulating human resource strategies and establishing optimal programs, systems, and policies, and works with human resource business partners to implement measures for human resource development and training throughout the Company.
The Company is working to secure, maintain, and improve a working environment where people can work safely and healthily as a foundation for realizing its Purpose.
The NEC Group believes that conducting corporate activities with respect for human rights is essential to fulfill its Purpose. With this in mind, it has positioned respect for human rights as one of the Principles outlined in the NEC Way, a shared policy which expresses the behavior that we value as a company, and clearly stipulates the requirement of respect for human rights in all situations by everyone, from NEC Group officers to employees.
NEC has formulated the NEC Group AI and Human Rights Principles (the “Companywide Principles”) in line with the NEC Group Human Rights Policy to guide employees in recognizing respect for privacy and human rights as the highest priority in its business operations in relation to social implementation of AI and utilization of biometrics and other data (“AI utilization”).
In addition to facilitating compliance with relevant laws and regulations around the globe, the Companywide Principles guide employees in recognizing respect for human rights as the highest priority in each and every stage of business operations in relation to AI utilization, and enable them to take action accordingly.
The NEC Group Code of Conduct stipulates respect for human rights and privacy and the management of personal information, and NEC has positioned “Provision and Utilization of AI with Respect for Human Rights (AI and Human Rights),” including personal information protection initiatives, as a priority management theme from an ESG perspective—materiality. From this perspective, we are tackling prevention of any privacy-related issues stemming from the handling of personal information, in addition to undertaking other personal information protection measures.
NEC recognizes that it has a duty to protect the information assets entrusted to it by its customers and business partners as well as its own information assets in order to provide better products and services and contribute to the development of a better society. Based on this concept, NEC has positioned security (information security and cybersecurity) as one of its priority management themes from an ESG perspective—its materiality—and has established the NEC Group Information Security Statement as the basis for driving efforts.
In keeping with the spirit of “Better Products, Better Services” embedded in our Principles, in 1992 NEC formulated its “Customer Satisfaction Management (CSM) concept.” The CSM concept consists of “Significance,” “Activity System,” “Goal,” and “CS Action Plan.”
We have set up the Quality and Safety Action Policy, and we are conducting activities such as complying with product and service quality and safety laws and regulations, improving safe, reliable technologies, standardizing key components, sharing expertise, and taking steps to prevent defects and recurring issues.
We hope that all our employees will be confident in NEC’s quality policy by continuing to raise the quality of their own work, the products they create, and the services they provide. Also we hope to see “NEC Quality” become the preferred and trusted choice of our customers.
As stated in our Purpose, NEC has committed itself to creation of the social values of safety, security, fairness and efficiency to promote a more sustainable world where everyone has the chance to reach their full potential.
Guided by this concept, each member of NEC, from directors to employees, acts as a good corporate citizen by carrying out NEC Make-a-Difference Drive corporate citizenship activities aimed at resolving social issues over the medium to long term.
