We position human capital management as a critical issue in our management strategy, particularly in terms of promoting sustainability.
In OVOL Medium-term Business Plan 2026, which was launched in fiscal 2024, one of the fundamental principles is enhancing profitability by improving productivity and work engagement. To this end, we have set KPIs related to expanding our education and training systems, enhancing employee engagement, improving work styles, and ensuring diversity, and will implement specific measures to achieve these goals. For example, in 2023, when we conducted our first employee engagement survey, our rating was “B,” which is in the mid-range. However, for our KPIs for FY2026, we have set the goal of achieving a “BBB” rating. To achieve this, we will strengthen communication and coordination functions to further share and promote management strategies, and conduct recruitment, placement, and training based on a human resource portfolio aligned with those strategies.
In working to realizing one of OVOL Vision 2030’s goals of becoming “a corporate group that strives to be considered a trustworthy and engaging partner both within and beyond the paper industry,” we will strengthen our human resources, our greatest form of management capital, and foster a corporate culture where diverse talent can continuously take on challenges by leveraging their individuality.
