Message from the President

Masaki Nakamura

The Company was established as a result of it being spun-off from the Information Systems Division of Yokohama Rubber. We contribute to society and our customers by responding to diverse IT needs and providing advanced services that utilize the latest technology.
Commencing with our acquisition of ISO 9001 (quality) certification in December 2002, the Company has endeavored to develop socially responsive systems. This strategy has included the acquisition of Privacy Mark certification (October 2006), and ISO 14001 (environment) and ISO 27001 (information-security) certification (both February 2007), etc.
We have developed a large number of attractive human resources who are trusted as human beings, as well as advanced IT technology skills, and have evolved into a trusted partner by responding to the diverse needs of our customers.
We focus on health management from the perspective that human capital is the only important management resource, and in 2019, we received Yokohama Health Management Certification (Yokohama City) and Health Management Excellence Corporation (Economic Industry Ministry).
In line with the Yokohama Rubber Group's sustainability slogan, "Consideration for the Future," we will work to address social issues through our business activities.

Organizational Governance

Corporate governance systems

In accordance with regulations, decisions involving the entire company are decided upon both at meetings held by the Board of Directors (held monthly) and at management meetings (held monthly).
Each year, in addition to formulating medium-range plans and announcing them to all employees, at the unit policy announcement meetings, the various managers announce the unit policies for each financial year.

Compliance measures

We place emphasis on compliance and provide compliance education via e-learning for all employees.
We also distribute compliance cards containing the Yokohama Rubber Group Code of Conduct to all employees to raise awareness.

Personal information is handled appropriately in accordance with the Privacy Mark certification that we have obtained.
Issues are taken very seriously when they are identified through internal or external audits, etc., and we work quickly to implement responses.

Business continuity

In the event of a serious disaster, accident, or other unforeseen event, we will place the highest priority on human life, ensure the safety of our employees and their families, and take measures to minimize its impact. We will then do our utmost to continue our business, thereby earning the trust of our customers and fulfilling our corporate social responsibility.

Wages and promotions are handled according to a company-wide system, and there are no differences between men and women, including in terms of placement.

We are actively working to reform the way we work under the banner of health management. We have introduced a wide range of teleworking programs, including a telecommuting system, to create a system that allows employees to work regardless of their environment.
In March 2025, we continued to receive the highest level "AAA" of the "Yokohama Health Management Certification" sponsored by the City of Yokohama, and in March 2025, we were recognized by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry as an "Excellent Health Management Corporation 2025" for the seventh consecutive year.

Just as our company is needed by society, all of our employees are indispensable to our company. Working at our company means "use your strengths to help those around you,'' and our company has many talented employees working in this way.
New employees (new graduates and second-year graduates) are assigned to the field after undergoing training for prospective employees and group training for new employees. After assignment, they are closely followed up with on-the-job training to improve their skills as SEs.
We have an educational system in place to promote the growth of each employee and the organization, and conduct a variety of training programs for each rank and skill training. We also provide distributed online training, creating an environment where you can improve your skills regardless of your work style.

Emergency drills

Emergency drills

At the Yokohama Office, we participate in emergency drills that are jointly held twice a year with all tenants in the building. Disaster drills are also conducted at least once a year at other offices. The drills assume the occurrence of disasters such as earthquake, tsunami, or fire, and they are participated in by most employees and partner company employees regardless of whether they are engaged in meetings, training, or meetings with customers, excluding times when it is decided they will be absent in advance.
We have supplies of emergency food enough for 3 days, and the expiration dates are managed.
Other disaster prevention supplies (emergency toilets, cold weather sheets, air mattresses, sanitary supplies, power-generating radios, flashlights, first aid kits, etc.) are always on hand.

Occupational safety and health

In fiscal year 2024, we had two commuting accidents, but none resulted in serious injury. There were no work-related accidents.
We hold a safety and health committee meeting every month, and each business site has a legally required health manager and health promoter, working to create a safe and healthy working environment and strengthen awareness.
In each workplace, we are working to improve work quality and efficiency, and reduce near-miss incidents, with the aim of improving business operations.
We are taking steps to improve the quality and efficiency of operations, while also working to reduce “near misses,” etc.
Furthermore, concerning the issue of employee overwork, in accordance with the “36 Agreements” regarding overtime and holiday work (which relate to Article 36 of the Labor Standards Act), in addition to reports being made to monthly corporate business meetings, etc., measures have been put in place whereby overwork cases undergo interviews with industrial physicians.
