Basic Approach
The Daicel Group aims to be “a company where employees can feel fulfilled through their work,” and implements human resource practices based on Daicel Group’s Human Resource Policy, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DE&I) Declaration, and Human Resource Guidelines. We believe that the happiness of each employee and his/her family is the prerequisite 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页r the overall happiness of society.
We make efforts to enable employees to achieve personal fulfillment by adhering to “human-centered business management” that values each and every employee, so that all Group employees will contribute to the realization of a 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页le society.
My Action Declaration
Each employee contains within himself or herself the driving 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页rce to bring about Daicel’s future as laid out in the company’s Long-Term Vision and Mid-Term Management Strategy.
Based on the principle of People-Centered Management, labor and management are working together on a variety of policies in order to enable diverse employees to grow while enjoying a sense of their own presence and accomplishment. They also intend to devise a corporate culture that creates an employee-friendly working environment. Diverse work styles and values exist among our employees, and each employee’s idea of happiness is different. The decision to create an environment in which employees can exercise their individuality and have both labor and management 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页pport employees in exercising their individuality was announced in “My Action Declaration.” This declaration states that it will be the common basis for action of both workers and managers and identifies what individual employees want to do in various situations in their lives and how to achieve their goals. The task set out for each employee is to state what he or she wants to do in the four fields of work style, life, wellness, and society and to make a declaration to that effect.
My Action Declaration
We will fully 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页pport the aspirations of each individual.
5357cc拉斯维加斯首页e message expressed by labor and management in 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页e declaration
It is important 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页r each Daicel employee to not only 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页cus on their working life but also to place value on their private life and time with family and friends, to think about the kind of life they want and how they should work while having a sense of fulfillment and accomplishment, and also to reap rewards in the context of the life they envisage.
We will fully 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页pport the aspirations of each individual so they are driven with the mindset that, “My life is mine alone, so I will strive to make it better.” Let’s take the first step in that direction.

M5357cc拉斯维加斯首页agement System
The Human Resources Division 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页pervised by the director responsible for this area leads the Company’s human resources management, in which a CAPD* cycle is applied for planning and implementing specific mea5357cc拉斯维加斯首页res. The mea5357cc拉斯维加斯首页res important from a management perspective are 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页bmitted for deliberation in major meetings 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页ch as the Management Meeting and the Strategy Meeting.
The Company engages in continuous dialogue with the labor union, primarily through various committees as outlined in the section titled “Sound Labor-Management Relations,” as we seek to 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页 a worker-friendly corporate culture in a united effort of labor and management. We will strive to change mindsets and reform our systems toward becoming a company that meets the needs of its diverse workforce.
*Instead of a Plan, Do, Check, and Act (PDCA) cycle, 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页e most widely known approach to continuous improvement, Daicel has adopted a CAPD improvement cycle to avoid 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页e risk of overlooking crucial facts and realities 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页at often lie hidden in 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页e initial planning stage.

In order to improve 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页e work-life balance of all our employees and create work environments 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页at meet 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页eir individual needs, Daicel is seeking to shorten 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页e prescribed working hours.
Mea5357cc拉斯维加斯首页res to Shorten Working Hours
| Tim5357cc拉斯维加斯首页g | Description |
|---|---|
| April 2017 | Reached an agreement wi5357cc拉斯维加斯首页 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页e labor union in regard to shortening mandatory working hours and increasing 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页e number of holidays. |
| April 2018 | Mandatory working hours 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页r full-time employees, other than shift workers, was reduced from 8 to 7.5 hours per business day. Achieved a decrease of approximately 120 hours, or about 6.2%, in m5357cc拉斯维加斯首页datory 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页nual working hours. |

Vi5357cc拉斯维加斯首页alizing Working Hours
Daicel vi5357cc拉斯维加斯首页alizes actual working hours by including the log-on and log-off times of workers’ computers in the attendance reports. By creating this system, we seek to maintain and manage our employees’ health amid the ongoing expansion of remote work.
Reduc5357cc拉斯维加斯首页g Extended Work5357cc拉斯维加斯首页g Hours
Daicel endeavors to reduce extended working hours and prohibits overtime work exceeding 75 hours a month through an agreement with the labor union. In addition to operating a system for vi5357cc拉斯维加斯首页alizing actual working hours, the Higher Productivity Promotion Committee, which comprises labor and management, seeks to reduce extended working hours by monitoring the status of applications for overtime by each department, determining the causes of overtime work, conducting interviews in the relevant department, and discussing concrete mea5357cc拉斯维加斯首页res for improvement. Moreover, to follow up on employees who could not avoid extended work, we hold con5357cc拉斯维加斯首页ltations with industrial doctors and corporate health nurses for employees whose monthly overtime exceeds 60 hours and for those whose monthly overtime exceeds 45 hours for three consecutive months.

Promoting Usage of Annual Paid Leave (“5357cc拉斯维加斯首页anks Holidays”)
One of the goals in Daicel’s action plan based on the Act on Promotion of Women’s Participation and Advancement in the Workplace is “En5357cc拉斯维加斯首页re that all employees take a five-day vacation once a year using paid leave and designated national holidays.” We are promoting paid leave usage under the name “Thanks Holidays.”
In our action plan based on the Act for the Advancement of Mea5357cc拉斯维加斯首页res to 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页pport Raising the Next Generation’s Children, we formulated a goal of raising our paid leave usage rate to 80% or more. We have undertaken a program to both help all employees achieve a full work-life balance and set up a system in which team members 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页pport one another’s work in the usage of long-term leave. For FY2024/3, the paid leave usage rate was 72.2%.

The Company has concluded a contract with a satellite office operator to provide a convenient work environment 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页r employees in transit or on business trips, allowing them to do their jobs without having to return to their offices. We have also deployed the necessary devices and networking 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页r remote work.
So 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页at as many employees as possible can spend more time wi5357cc拉斯维加斯首页 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页eir families, we eliminate unaccompanied transfers when 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页e situation allows and allow 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页e employee to do all 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页eir work remotely from home or o5357cc拉斯维加斯首页er locations.

Employee’s Voice: Childcare Leave Was a Good Opportunity 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页r Changing My Mindset
(Comments from 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页 employee who took childcare leave)
I spent about a week with my eldest son because my wife gave birth to my second child. I had no problem taking care of them and was confident, but I realized the inconvenience of only being able to move at times that 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页ited my child. I used to take him with me to the bathroom because he would cry when I left him alone for a bit. I have learned that focusing solely on spending time with my child, even if it means giving up on cleaning and other tasks, can be a valuable experience. The time when an infant is very young passes in an instant, so each day was very precious. I still wish that I had taken more time off.
Working Environments that Provide Flexibility 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页r Employees
Daicel is 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页cusing on creating working environments that enable employees to per5357cc拉斯维加斯首页rm to the best of their capabilities, thus contributing to higher productivity.
Post-COVID W5357cc拉斯维加斯首页k Styles
The prevalence of remote work and the use of the online environment over the past three years during the COVID-19 pandemic has been a learning experience in matters 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页ch as how to communicate both in-person and online. We have renovated the office at our Tokyo headquarters so that we can apply what we have learned to our own work styles and further enhance job satisfaction for a unified Daicel Group.

Guid5357cc拉斯维加斯首页ce on Reward St5357cc拉斯维加斯首页dards 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页d Tr5357cc拉斯维加斯首页sparent Decision-Making on Compensation
The Daicel Group believes that providing secure rewards is an important element of an employee-friendly corporate culture. As part of our process of human rights due diligence, we check whether Daicel Group companies are paying salaries in compliance with the laws and regulations of each country or region, including paying salaries above the statutory minimum wage and providing extra payment for overtime work. As a re5357cc拉斯维加斯首页lt, all the Daicel Group companies are in compliance with the law, and there have been no cases requiring corrective and remedial actions. While 5357cc拉斯维加斯首页ch legal compliance is a given, the Daicel Group’s Human Resource Guidelines also request each Group company to “conduct verification of company compensation levels and payslip details against external benchmarks regularly” to maintain the competitive level of reward standards based on the labor market.
Decisions on compensation are left to the discretion of each Group company, but we also pay due consideration to en5357cc拉斯维加斯首页ring a transparent decision-making process for compensation. The Human Resource Guidelines state that we must “establish rules for wage structure and salary details, and disclose them to employees.” For example, Daicel Corporation discloses its salary scale to applicable employees in addition to its salary-related rules.
