Social Context and Recognition of Issues

We are working to establish a society where a wide range of individuals, irrespective of their race, skin color, nationality, language, religion, thought, age, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, with or without disability, property, or employment type, can acknowledge one another’s ideas and values, have equal access to opportunities, and actively contribute to society.

On the other hand, the retail industry continues to face a difficult business environment due to intensifying competition, consumers' continued preference for lower prices, labor shortages, and the impact of COVID-19.

Businesses are expected to help raise the labor participation rate and boost labor productivity concurrently by improving workplace environments so that diverse human resources can play active roles, and by establishing systems that allow for flexible working styles. Businesses also have to promote the concept of Decent Work.” Among other things, this means developing workplaces that are safe and healthy for employees, practicing fair employment and promotion, and providing fair evaluation and treatment.

As one of FamilyMart’s strengths is our rich diversity and inclusion, the most important thing to do is to form a corporate culture where employees can think freely and thereby create value.

Vision

In order to appropriately and quickly respond to changes, the most important thing for each and every employee is to keep evolving.

FamilyMart believes that creating an organizational culture that enables everyone to play an active role, promoting the creation of a safe and rewarding workplace, and nurturing people, who are the key players, will lead to a bright future and corporate growth.

By leveraging various strengths and maximizing our value, we will aim to be a franchise that is loved by everyone, connects with local communities like a family, and keep growing with local communities.
