DE&I Overview
NICT Diversity Promotion Declaration
At NICT, we respect individuals and promote Diversity,
Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) where everyone can thrive.
We aim to create a workplace environment where each person,
regardless of age, gender, nationality, or other unique characteristics,
has ample opportunities to take on challenges.
By valuing diversity, equity, and inclusion,
we enable everyone to maximize their potential.
NICT strives to be an organization where
diverse individuals feel motivated and excited
to create a future full of possibilities.
Initiation Framework
NICT promotes an organization-wide framework to realize a working environment where everyone can thrive.
A Diversity Promotion Committee composed of executives, heads of departments, divisions, research institutes, and employee representatives, and reports directly to the President. This committee formulates and builds consensus on the basic policy for promoting diversity across NICT.
The Diversity Promotion Office is responsible for planning and coordinating measures in line with the basic policy, and also serves as the Committee’s secretariat. Furthermore, the “Diversity Promotion Project” established within the Office involves members with diverse attributes and age groups from locations and departments nationwide who advance concrete initiatives in collaboration with relevant departments.
Roadmap
NICT Diversity Statement
“Imagine a world where the flow of information is no more.”
Our lives, even their most everyday moments, have taken shape
through a succession of endeavors and innovations.
At NICT, we aim to protect these days when people can live in peace
and to co-create a freer, more expansive future together with you.
To achieve this, it is essential for us to foster even greater innovation,
enhance our organizational creativity, and improve our international competitiveness.
To this end, we are committed to promoting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I).
Diversity at NICT means having deep respect for each individual.
We respect individuals regardless of age, gender, nationality, faith, culture, language,
race, ethnicity, color, work style, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity,
marital status, or any other aspect of personal identity.
Equity at NICT means ensuring that individual characteristics
do not determine one’s opportunities for challenge and growth.
We will realize an environment where every employee can maximize their potential through support
for professional development and a healthy balance between work and life responsibilities.
Inclusion at NICT means recognizing and leveraging the unique qualities of each person.
We will create an organization where employees can freely express their opinions,
share their individual characteristics and abilities, and cooperate with each other.
To achieve these goals, NICT will bring together members
not only from the Diversity Promotion Office but from across the entire organization,
working collectively to make DE&I a natural and integrated part of our everyday lives.
