People-focused policies at work

We at Seiko Holdings Corporation and our operating companies believe that creating a safe and secure working environment for each staff member leads to ongoing improvement of corporate performance as well as fulfillment of our social responsibilities.

The composition of staff is as follows:

Composition of staff (as of March 2011, consolidated for major domestic companies)

Ratio of
male and female staff
Ratio of
management-level staff
Ratio of
male and female
management-level staff
Male 77% Management 15% Male 97%
Female 23% General 85% Female 3%

“Management-level” refers to the position of a section chief or higher.

We are striving to create an environment that allows our people to exercise benefits under the system for parental leave/ parental shortened working-hour programs so that they can succeed at their work, child-rearing, and fully exercise their abilities. During FY 2010, among major operating companies in Japan, 52 staff members took parental leave and 108 staff members were on the parental shortened working-hour program.

Under the revised Japan’s Law on the Promotion of Measures to Support Fostering of the Next Generation, we have developed an action plan, and each company is working to fulfill its objectives by 2015.

Objective #1:
To achieve the following targets for taking parental leave during the period of the action plan:

  1. For male staff: At least one during the period of the action plan
  2. For female staff: The current rate at 70% is to be maintained

Objective #2:
To eliminate overtime work on No Overtime Days to reduce non-scheduled working hours

Objective #3:
To improve the parental shortened working-hour system
