Sustainability
To achieve sustainable growth, it is essential to respect each individual employee and foster an environment where diverse talent can thrive and contribute. We respect fundamental human rights and will strengthen our organizational capabilities through communication that transcends divisional, domestic, and international boundaries. In an open work environment, we aim to be a company that grows together with people in countries around the world by encouraging a sense of personal growth and self-actualization so that each individual can fully demonstrate their capabilities.
Refining individual qualities as a member of society pursuing an enhanced ability as a member of the organization, and expanding awareness and perception as a member of the global community, all Fujitec members achieve personal goals, sharpen leadership skills and develop a broader understanding of others, while ensuring the company's continued growth and success.
Fujitec is engaged in various human resource development programs in accordance with our human resource development policy.
Examples of Human Resource Development
We held the Global Field Engineering Skill Competition at TokyoFit as part of our
efforts to develop human resources. At the competition, field engineers responsible
for maintaining elevators and escalators demonstrated their skills. This marked the
third time the competition was held, following the second, held in 2019 in
Singapore. The competition was not held in 2020 or 2021 due to COVID-19. The first
competition was held in 2017 in Taiwan.
The 2022 competition was held in Japan. Thirty elite engineers from our global hubs
in 13 countries including Japan competed in pairs (15 pairs in total) with their
elevator maintenance skills in a tense but friendly atmosphere.
We plan to continue holding the competition to provide an opportunity for our international engineers to share their skills and interact with one another.
Fujitec offers both level-specific and purpose-specific training to develop its human
resources.
Purpose-specific training is divided into core talent training and personal
development training. Core talent training involves Fujitec Academy, a new training
program designed to nurture next-generation leaders, as well as the global business
leader (GBL) training program as part of our efforts to develop its global talent.
The nine-month GBL training program focuses on a wide range of issues, including business skills such as a global mindset and problem-solving thinking, negotiations and presentations in English, onsite work instructions, and tax accounting literacy. Some of those who have completed the program have landed promising positions at overseas subsidiaries of the Fujitec Group. Going forward, Fujitec will continue to commit itself to developing its global human resources.
As part of our efforts to raise the motivation of our employees, we grant qualification badges to maintenance field engineers in the division responsible for maintaining elevators and escalators according to their skill levels. Our maintenance field engineers are given three-star and five-star qualification badges if they are recognized as an inspection supervisor and a premium maintenance inspection supervisor, respectively, in light of our inspection supervisor qualification criteria.
Badge recipients can wear the badge on the chest part of their uniforms. We introduced the qualification badge program to make maintenance work for elevators and escalators rewarding. This is because such work is often considered mundane because people take it for granted that elevators and escalators work properly.
Going forward, we will remain committed to raising the motivation of our employees.
Fujitec India's Fujitec Japan–India Institute for Manufacturing (Fujitec JIM), opened in November 2023, in Tamil Nadu, Chennai, has been certified by Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) as a "Japan-India Institute for Manufacturing."
The "Japan-India Institute for Manufacturing" program is a certification and support initiative aimed at recognizing human resource development bodies established by Japanese companies operating in India. The curriculum of such schools is designed to help students acquire Japanesestyle manufacturing concepts and skills.
Fujitec JIM will provide classroom and on-site practical training in elevator production, installation, maintenance, and quality control. After about one year of training, the first cohort of students will be assigned as full-time employees of Fujitec India.
We are developing and updating the project content of the "Fujitec Bright" on the official Fujitec Instagram account, which introduces Fujitec's female employees who are performing work very actively.
