Fujikura Cube, a Special Subsidiary
Aiming to create a society and corporation where all people play a role
The Fujikura Group CSR Committee promotes the employment of people with disabilities as one of our Group’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives. Going forward, the activities of Fujikura Cube, our special subsidiary for promoting the employment of people with disabilities, will be far more than an important component of our CSR activities: they will also stand as our response to the need for diversity, sought from our company by both Japan and the rest of the world. Through the development of our company, we would like to actively contribute to the future of Japan and the future of local communities, aiming to realize a country where all citizens are dynamically engaged in the economy.
Our Group has promoted initiatives for the employment of people with disabilities as one of our corporate social responsibilities (CSR). Guided by the Group’s Philosophy of Diversity, established “to cultivate an organizational climate that enables a diverse array of employees to fully utilize their strengths and maximize their abilities through proactive recognition of each other's individuality,” together with our Management Policy for Respecting Diversity, which “create[s] a company-wide environment optimal for mutual respect, encouragement, and cooperation... where each employee can fully demonstrate the abilities they command,” we aim to realize a society that proactively employs people with disabilities: a society where everyone can work and flourish.
On November 2, 2015, the Group founded Fujikura Cube Ltd. On April 1 the following year, five new staff members with disabilities were welcomed into the company, and operations began with an aim toward achieving Special Subsidiary certification. This new company, Fujikura Cube, contracts to do work with Fujikura Sakura Works and other companies within our Group. The dedication and effort these employees make is a pleasure and joy for those who have a relationship with their contracted work.
On June 14, 2016, Fujikura Cube was accepted as a Special Subsidiary, receiving its certification at the Kiba Public Employment Security Office (Koto-ku, Tokyo). As it further promotes the employment of people with disabilities, Fujikura Cube will expand upon the scope and content of the work, improve the efficiency of the Group's operations, and contribute to the development of the Group, all while aiming to realize within local communities a society where everyone can work and flourish.
