Employment and Talent Development

NHK Spring advocates “growth through innovative ideas and practices” as part of its Corporate Philosophy, and we are widely looking for motivated individuals who are willing to break out of the mold, take on challenges, and overcome difficulties through teamwork.

In terms of the diversity of talent, we are further promoting the employment of people with disabilities through a special-purpose subsidiary, and are also actively recruiting women and non-Japanese employees. In addition, we employ and support the activities of persons such as top athletes who possess outstanding abilities in various fields.

Our talent development aims to realize qualitative improvement in both the abilities of human resources and organizational capabilities for sustainable growth.

First, in terms of talent, each employee should be aware of our Corporate Philosophy and demonstrate it in his or her own actions. Considering the ideal being aimed for, employees are expected to establish their own ability development goals and strive to achieve them in their work while conducting dialog with their superiors.

In addition to group training based on job level and job function, against the background of the increasing globalization of our business, each employee participates in foreign language and cross-cultural training programs and the like, which are designed to enhance their ability to accept diverse values and communicate cross-culturally.

Also, in order to further improve our competitiveness as a manufacturing company in terms of organizational strength, we conduct courses for training manufacturing line Kaizen (improvement) leaders, courses for instilling the strategic thinking needed to conduct practical business strategy reviews, and courses for cultivating creativity and innovation.

In this way, the entire Company will continue to work on talent development as a three-part system, in which "individuals" who are trying to grow on their own are nurtured by the "organization" and supported by the "personnel system".

To promote awareness of NHK Spring among as many students as possible, we post “Work experiences” introducing the NHK Spring work style under the catchphrase "Key parts professionals = Monozukuri professionals" online, and provide online “career interviews" with Human Resources Department staff for persons who want to know more about the Company's work style.

We also ask young employees and mid-career employees to join in free talking sessions so that students can hear the real voices of employees. Our activities are designed to give prospective new recruits an idea of our corporate culture and atmosphere, as well as Company life after recruitment.

 We are also striving to increase awareness of NHK Spring by disclosing information on recruitment information websites and setting up a dedicated "Recruiting page" on the Company's website.
