Human Resource Development Policy
SUN-WA Technos’s worth is dependent on its human resources.
We develop personnel who challenge themselves and work hard towards self-actualization.
We work to enable a diverse range of personnel to thrive, promote work style reforms, and strive to create a workplace environment that respects each employee’s individuality and draws upon their strengths.
Based on the “SUN-WA SPITIS,” which is the fundamental mind and skill of all SUN-WA TECHONS' employees, we are formulating a human resources strategy in our 12th Medium-Term Management Plan to build systems and organizations that enable every employee to thrive.
