Human Capital Management
Human resource development policy
In order for MDV to achieve sustainable growth and realize its management philosophy, which has been in place since its founding, it must form an organizational structure and culture in which all employees understand and practice the corporate culture and are empowered to continue taking on challenges.
In order to cultivate employees who will form this culture, MDV positions human resource development as one of its most important management measures. We aim to 1) instill our management philosophy, 2) create an environment that encourages people to take on challenges, and 3) provide the opportunity to experience growth. Using these three pillars as the basis of our approach, we will create an organization in which diverse human resources can actively participate.
Three measures based on the human resource development policy
- Change employee awareness by instilling MDV’s management philosophy and management policies (instilling our management philosophy)
- Create an environment in which people can continue to take on challenges without being tied to existing businesses (encouraging people to take on challenges)
- Establish a system that enables people to experience growth and give back (providing a real sense of growth)
Internal environmental improvement policy
Based on our human resource development policy, we provide fair opportunities to take on challenges, experience actual growth and actively participate in an environment in which all employees can maintain good physical and mental health and perform to the best of their ability. In order to do so, we have put the following three measures in place.
Three measures based on the internal environmental improvement policy
- Create an environment in which diverse human resources can be assigned, understood, challenged and empowered to actively contribute
- Ensure employee health and safety
- Create good labor-management relations and a working environment that enables coordination and cooperation
Conducting employee engagement surveys
We believe that employee engagement is critical to creating an organization where each individual can be at their best and where there is job satisfaction. In order to ascertain and resolve organizational issues, we introduced an employee engagement survey in FY2023. Since FY2024, we have been restructuring our training system for new graduate employees and, to enable smooth operations, making revisions to our personnel system, and the employee engagement survey will also be used as a means of evaluating the effectiveness of these efforts.
The results of the first year of the survey revealed that there are issues with communication between hierarchical levels, such as between those in management and those in the field. In order to strengthen organizational relationships, we have formulated an overall corporate action plan and action plans for each division, and have begun to work toward a solution. In addition to taking advantage of regular Group-wide meeting opportunities to communicate management’s thoughts on the results of this survey, dialogue meetings between management and employees were held for each individual division to reconcile perceptions. Going forward, we will continue our efforts to create opportunities for two-way dialogue.
In addition, the management level, which serves to bridge different hierarchical levels, will also work to improve organizational management skills by, for example, holding regular meetings with the President.
