DEIB JTB GROUP

At JTB Group,
we have been pioneering Ways for a New Era
by bringing people, places,
and possibilities together.
To pioneer the New Era,
we firmly believe that
it is essential to embrace diversity
from external aspects such as age,
gender, and race,
to internal aspects such as religion,
education, and lifestyle,
with no prejudice and discrimination.
While we are committed to embracing diversity,
the challenge still remains.
Unknowingly,
we have often relied on high-context communication
where one's age or career influences
the weight of their words.
Recognizing this challenge,
we feel a strong need to evolve.
By celebrating all forms of individuality,
we will build a world where diversity is the norm.
And by making the best of diverse individuality,
we will propel ourselves towards our new values.
We champion DEIB (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Belonging).
We honor the experience and perspectives of every member.
Together,
we create an environment where individuals can thrive.
As a team, we challenge and empower each other
and we continue to pioneer the New Era.

    Leadership roles filled by women

    Apr. 2023
    37.6%
    Goal of FY2024

    All Employees
    59.7%
    Full-time Employees
    60.6%
    Part-time Employees
    76.0%

    While we apply the equal payment standards regardless of gender, disparities have arisen due to the fact that approximately 90% of women make some form of work arrangements* as well as the low representation of women in leadership roles (37%) compared to their overall presence in the workforce (61%).
    *The term "work arrangement" here refers to the system that allows employees to flexibly choose where they work from and what they are responsible for based on their personal values and living circumstances.
    We are committed to creating an environment that enables women to work for long-term regardless of her lifestyle changes, while also developing career paths that allow them to work in multiple ways without limiting their responsibilities. We actively support opportunities for women employees to thrive and acquire management skills, striving to build a work environment that embraces diversity.

    Parental Leave Rate

    Female
    100%
    Male
    43.6%(Average days 17.7)

    We aim to be a company where women can give childbirth without having to worry about her job, and both men and women can take parental leave and actively engage in childcare and household responsibilities; a company where all employees have a feeling of 'job satisfaction' and 'great place to work' and can strive for long period of time at JTB. Furthermore, within JTB Group's DEIB (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Belonging) initiatives, we are working to foster a deep understanding of and encourage the utilization of these parental leave-related programs, by promoting gender equality actions and introducing employees who have already utilized paternal leave system.
