Sustainability in CDC

We aim to create a society in which working people have good jobs and lead good lives from the perspective of the employment of human resources. By providing support starting from career selection so that working people can lead more prosperous lives, and by creating both social and economic value through our businesses under proper corporate governance as a company trusted by society, we seek to contribute to making society sustainable and to improve corporate value.

Our sustainability efforts shall be supervised by the Director in charge of administration, and the Corporate Planning Bureau shall plan and draft policies and measures, which shall then be submitted or reported to the Board of Executives and the Board of Directors.

In September 2022, we identified five material issues (materialities) to be addressed as priorities in order to achieve a sustainable society and continue to expand CDC's corporate value. 

　As Japan has faced the issue of a declining birthrate and aging population, we have supported its people in changing careers through the mobility of highly career-oriented human resources who are "one level higher," mainly IT engineers and women. Despite many crises such as the bursting of the IT bubble and the global financial crisis, human resource services have been the focus of Japan's growth strategy amid global trends and the weakening Japanese economy. 

　Similarly, during the COVID-19 pandemic, our human resources services have proven to be a necessary sector for Japan, and they have become indispensable in terms of the social structure of the future. We believe that we have an extremely important societal role to play in order to achieve a sustainable society from both the individual and corporate perspectives; in other words, from the perspective of providing jobs and companies that satisfy individuals, and of recruiting human resources who will enable companies and their business to develop and grow. Our vision is to become a company that always solves social issues not only in the short term of five years ahead but also 20 or 30 years into the future. Based on this value creation story, we strive for effective management and business activities to solve issues, with recognition of the importance of the material issues we have identified.
