Human Capital Management

We uphold our KOSÉ Beauty Partnership with the aim of building relationships that enable mutual growth with all stakeholders. Our employees are also important stakeholders, and we believe their growth and the full utilization of their abilities are the driving force behind our company's sustainable growth. Therefore, we recognize the diversity of our team members, the career development of each employee, and their physical and mental well-being as management issues. We position addressing these issues as an investment for the future and strive to promote human capital management.

Based on the belief that fostering a workplace culture that promotes a high level engagement while employing diverse human resources is the foundation that supports organizational creativity and competitiveness, we are working to create an organization where employees can continue to work with pride and a sense of fulfillment. We are also developing a system that allows employees to flexibly respond to changes in life stages, such as child-rearing and nursing care, and to work vibrantly with diverse values and choices.
The physical and mental health of employees and their families is also essential for sustainable management. The KOSÉ Group strives to create a vibrant workplace by establishing a safe and secure working environment that addresses the health issues of each and every employee.

We will continue to strive to be a company trusted by society, where employees with diverse individuality can fully demonstrate their abilities, contribute to the world through unique value creation and solving social issues.

Human Capital Management as a Foundation for Business Growth

At KOSÉ, we have long generated new value through the collective strength of our employees—individuals who support and uplift one another while sharing the founding spirit of “Mind to Follow the Right Path”. To achieve globally optimized business growth across regions under our medium- to long-term vision “Vision for Lifelong Beauty Partner – Milestone 2030” — a vision which emphasizes the shift away from doing everything in-house — we must build on this spirit of mutual support and growth while cultivating the strength to continuously create new value in an increasingly volatile market environment.

Business growth driven by "Strong individuals" and "Strong organizations"

Achieving ”strength” requires strategically cultivating two key elements: “Strong individuals” who hone their skills, leverage their rich experience, and demonstrate their unique value; and “Strong organization” that bring these individuals together in collaboration to generate unprecedented value.

To build such individuals and organizations, we are pursuing four key initiatives:
