Recognized by D&I AWARD 2024 as a company with the highest “Best Workplace” rank for the third consecutive year

JSR Corporation was recognized with a “Best Workplace” ranking in the D&I AWARD 2024 (sponsored by JobRainbow Co., Ltd.), which recognizes companies in Japan that are committed to diversity and inclusion (February 12, 2025). This certification is given to advanced D&I companies that promote D&I at a high level not only in Japan but also on a global scale, and where, in addition to fostering a D&I corporate culture, employees are all actively involved in D&I promotion as individuals. JSR has been accredited for three consecutive years since FY2022.

JSR Corporation acquired Next Generation Mark certification “Platinum Kurumin” and JSR Micro Kyushu acquired “Kurumin” certification

In August 2007, April 2012, and October 2023, JSR Corporation was certified by the Minister of Health, Labor and Welfare as a company that provides child-rearing support and received Next Generation Mark certification (nicknamed “Kurumin”). JSR Micro Kyushu Co., Ltd. was certified in May 2017.

Furthermore, in October 2023, JSR Corporation acquired “Platinum Kurumin” certification, a special recognition given to leading companies supporting child-rearing with a higher level of initiatives.

This certification is the result of an evaluation of the status of JSR’s target achievement in the action plan for FY2020 to FY2022 (action plan announced based on the Act on Advancement of Measures to Support Raising Next-Generation Children) and the content of various measures such as training. The action plan set a numerical target of increasing the percentage of male employees taking childcare leave to 30% or more, and in FY2022 the actual rate reached 81.3%. This figure is much higher than the national average of 17.1% for male employees taking childcare leave in FY2022. In addition, 100% of JSR Corporation’s eligible female employees have taken childcare leave, and as a result of heightened awareness among both men and women of the need to balance work and childcare, taking childcare leave is becoming the norm. In addition to childcare-related initiatives, JSR was also recognized for the wide range of initiatives we have put in place to foster a corporate culture that encourages diverse and flexible work styles and career support, including training for key management personnel and dispatch of employees for external training.

JSR Corporation has acquired the “Tomonin” mark for promoting the establishment of a work environment that enables employees to balance work and caregiving duties.

JSR Corporation uses this mark (nicknamed Tomonin), which was created by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare for promoting the establishment of workplaces that enable employees to balance work and caregiving duties, to showcase JSR Corporation’s initiatives and create an environment that enables employees to continue to contribute actively while balancing work and caregiving duties.
