PHC Corporation is promoting women’s participation and advancement in the workplace from three points: reforming corporate culture, transforming managers’ mindsets, and enhancing female employee morale. We encourage employees to utilize teleworking and flexible working hours for coping with different lifestyles including parenting and nursing. A mentoring system for selected employees and round-table talks with the top management are held to support female employees’ longterm career development and increase their motivation. Training and seminars on diversity are also programmed for refreshing the managers’ ways of thinking.
