Human Resource Development

Basic Approach

In FYE2021, RYODEN established the Personnel Development Committee for its “people,” which are its invaluable asset. The purpose of the committee is to create an environment that develops autonomous human resources that think and act on their own and are highly motivated to grow. For new to mid-level employees, the committee defined the ideal employee model and the code of conduct and business promotion skills that employees of the Company must learn, and for management-level employees, it indicated the management know-how needed to support member growth and help the organization to properly function.

Based on the circumstances of each employee, on-the-job training, off-the-job training, self-development, and various programs are effectively combined, and a growth cycle of “indicate standards, teach, demand, and evaluate” is followed to develop human resources that are ready for the challenge of creating new value.

Reward system for acquiring public qualifications

Personnel evaluation system

We encourage a work style that is not tied to the boundaries of the main career track or the clerical career track. Instead, we have built an environment where employees can work on their own initiative to broaden their scope and deepen their responsibilities, without being restricted by qualifications or job categories. To create a culture that encourages employees to challenge themselves to achieve higher goals, we emphasize not only quantitative results but also the achievement of qualitative behavioral process goals. We also have a system in place to promote and advance employees who are motivated and have accordingly demonstrated excellence in their jobs. In addition, we have created individual "Training and Utilization Sheets" for each person to help them make progress.
