NITORI Group’s Human Capital
The NitoriGroup’s emphasis on human capital management is based on the concept of “ensuring that the employees who will lead the future can continue to work for a long time, and that this will lead to the growth of the company.” As a foundation for this, we invest more than five times the average of listed companies in human resource education. In addition, through job rotation, we develop human resources who can be active in a wide range of business fields from the perspective of total optimization. This not only improves labor productivity, butalso contributes to future global business development and the development of human resources who can play an active role on a global scale. Furthermore, the Nitori Group promotes a comfortable working environment for all employees, regardless of gender, and strives to ensure that the people who will create the future can continue working for a long time. We also focus on recruitment activities to recruit comrades who share the NitoriGroup’s mission and vision, and who will lead us into a new future. These series of human capital management efforts have helped us to improve our employee engagement.

Employee Engagement Survey
We aim to revitalize and grow the entire Nitori Group by having every employee share the mission and vision of the Nitori Group and voluntarily exert their abilities. Accordingly, we conduct an “Employee Engagement Survey” of all employees once every six months.
The survey results for the second half of FY2023 show an overall satisfaction rate of 81.4% (5,398 respondents, 98.3% response rate). This result is an improvement of 1.6 points compared to the survey conducted during the same period last year. The reason for this is analyzed to be that the “My Area System*,” introduced last year, improved satisfaction in the item of “flexibility in working style.”
We will continue to discover and analyze issues from the viewpoint of engagement based on the survey results, as well as promote improvements and reforms.
* System that allows employees to work only in certain areas and commute to work without having to relocate (for details, please refer to "Examples of Diversity initiatives").
