Sustainability

At Sysmex, we are making efforts toward “diversity and inclusion,” which calls for creating a pleasant working environment that is welcoming to diverse personnel. Under the people-oriented policy we have adopted, we hire human resources, regardless of their nationality, ethnicity, gender, age, work background, or whether they have a disability, and for our sustainability targets, we have set a female manager ratio and a percentage of employees with disabilities, and promoting the recruitment of diverse individuals and their personal development as well as improving workplace environments.

With regard to support for sexual and gender minorities, we have implemented a partner registration system that enables us to treat a same-sex partner as equal to a spouse on the family register. Moreover, through various efforts to deepen understanding about sexual and gender minorities, such as holding round table discussions on LGBTQ issues, providing introductory-level texts and e-learning materials for learning about making improvement the workplace environment from the perspective of SOGI (an acronym for Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity), and taking part in Tokyo Rainbow Pride 2022, the biggest LGBTQ event in Japan, we are raising the awareness of our employees year by year. Going forward, we will continue to strive to foster a corporate culture that enables our diverse human resources to have a sense of unity worldwide and put forth their abilities to the fullest with peace of mind.
