In order to improve the work environment for our entire workforce, which is more than eighty percent female, we at Primo Japan started by enhancing our childcare leave policies and childcare support. As a result, in 2017 we were the first company in the bridal industry to be awarded the highest “Eruboshi (L-Star)” rating in promoting the participation and advancement of women in the workforce, and were awarded “Kurumin Certification” in 2018 as a company that supports childcare.In addition to our “Primo College” skills development program, which offers employees the chance to learn through a well-balanced and systematic training program for 10 years after joining the company, and also our “Status Anniversary” system, which ranks employees based on the number of years since first joining the company, regardless of gender, age, or disability, we have also introduced training for all employees beginning in 2020 to deepen understanding of LGBT. We are also actively working to improve the environment for LGBT employees through reforms such as changing the official company definition of “spouse” and permitting the use of business names, for which we received the Gold Award in the "PRIDE Index 2021" established by the voluntary organization "work with PRIDE".We are implementing such initiatives to ensure that each employee shines individually and to guarantee that employees can take pride and find satisfaction in their work with the company for many years to come.
