Human Resource Development that Promotes a Sense of Growth
Human Resources Development Strategy Based on Self-Directed Career Planning
In our goal to become a Top Innovator in the healthcare industry, we have formulated a ten-year strategy, “TOP I 2030”. “People” lie at the heart of that strategy, and they are a core part of our foundations for growth.
With our deep and strong commitment “for the benefit of the patient,” we have a corporate culture of overcoming problems with teamwork. In our emphasis on having each employee engage in career planning with autonomy, we pursue “what we can do to help employees with those intentions to thrive.” In human resources development, we are fostering a culture of self-directed learning and growth and establishing systems to provide thorough support to individuals who continue to enhance themselves.
Specific Initiatives
We have set the theme of “respecting employees’ autonomy and supporting their challenges, autonomous learning, and strengthening of expertise,” with an emphasis on initiatives that support employees who embrace challenges.
Toward the fostering of this kind of culture of autonomous learning and the realization of growth through mutual enhancement, we have established a policy of 60% on-the-job training (OJT), 30% transfer/placement/promotion, and 10% off-the-job training (Off-JT), and we are promoting diverse learning opportunities and measures for self-directed career planning.
1. Skills enhancement (business skills and specialist skills)
- CHUGAI DIGITAL ACADEMY (CDA) for the discovery and development of digital human resources
- Various training programs (skills training for junior employees, leadership training, etc.) for the development of MRs
- Skills enhancement training by division
2. Personal career development
- Career Design Program (CDP) for employees to think regularly about their own careers
- Career declarations as an opportunity for employees to reflect on their own careers and discuss them with their managers
- Career consultation with in-house and external experts
See the “Career Support” page for details.
<Self-development>
We have introduced the following human resources support measures to encourage employees to embrace challenges and learn in a self-directed manner and to enhance their expertise.
- I-Learning: Platform for studying a wide range of e-learning content, both in-house and externally. Employees can learn the skills needed for individual positions.
- Self Innovation Program: Correspondence course recommended by the company. The company subsidizes tuition fees, including for external study.
3. Expanding horizons and experiences
By encountering environments and cultures outside the company, our employees can acquire practical skills and experiences that are not easily obtained within the company, foster a self-directed mindset, and network with new and diverse people related to their work. The enhancement of specific skills is being achieved through experiences outside the company.
See the “Creation of External Network Opportunities” page for details.
