 Personnel Matters
The “material and intellectual growth” targeted by the Management Rationale encompasses more than simply economic stability and prosperity. It embraces an enrichment of the spirit – something to live for and a sense of doing worthwhile work – through selffulfillment. To achieve the Management Rationale, our personnel systems are adaptable to the characteristics and societal norms of individual countries. Such systems must be able to adapt to diverse values and the changing environment of an aging society, in addition to the changing labor environment that stems from mobility of employment and globalization of corporate activity.

The Personnel Vision
To work continually on innovation of various personnel measures. To create a workplace climate in which all employees can take pride in the company and feel that their work is worthwhile, while sharing both hardships and joys. To thereby contribute to achieving the Management Rationale.

Respect for Human Rights
Aside from compliance with the laws of individual countries, the Kyocera Group explicitly prohibits the use of forced labor, child labor and other practices highlighted by the United Nation’s Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Fundamental Human Rights Convention by the International Labor Organization (ILO), the United Nations Global Compact, and other international conventions. The Kyocera Group also prohibits discriminatory treatment on the basis of gender, age, beliefs, nationality, physical features, etc. Furthermore, the Kyocera Group endeavors to exchange views and share information with employees through organizations such as labor unions and workplace associations. The Kyocera Group promotes development of appealing work environments that foster motivation to work. Meanwhile, great importance is placed on individual character and ability when hiring and appointing diverse talented people.

Development of Human “Assets”
Kyocera regards human resources as human “assets” and supports activities enabling employees to raise awareness of personal development and their contribution in the workplace.

 Safety & Health / Fire & Disaster Prevention
Provision of a safe and healthy work environment is a major requirement for achieving the material and intellectual growth of employees, as set out in the Management Rationale. Therefore, the Kyocera Group actively promotes safety and health alongside disaster prevention activities, while concentrating on building a corporate climate embodying the concept of “Safety First.”

Obtaining OHSAS18001 Certification
The Kyocera corporate culture places maximum priority on the safety and health of employees. Aiming to enhance a workplace environment in which employees can work safely and with peace of mind, Kyocera introduced an “Occupational Health and Safety Management System” in April 2005. The system is based on the OHSAS18001 standard. Operation of the system was later expanded to cover all Group companies.

 Kyocera Perfect 5S Promotion Activities
Perfect 5S is at the heart of work (5S: Seiri – Sort / Seiton – Set in Order / Seiso – Shine / Seiketsu – Sanitize / Shitsuke – Sustain). Kyocera Group efforts to implement the Perfect 5S system are called “Perfect 5S Promotion Activities.” They were introduced in Kyocera in October 2005, followed by Group companies in Japan in April 2006, and Group companies overseas in October 2007. Perfect 5S is thus being deployed on a global scale. Thorough implementation is helping the Kyocera Group toward realization of The Company.

Overseas Deployment
5S activities are recognized overseas. However, 5S training must be tailored for local conditions to ensure correct understanding of Kyocera’s independent Perfect 5S activities, and for ongoing implementation. The practice of 5S activities is reforming awareness and heightening sensitivity. Our goal is to be a company in which employees maintain high morale – a company with a work environment in which everyone can work safely and with peace of mind. photo:5S classes(Dongguan Shilong KYOCERA Optics Co., Ltd.)
