Skylark Group is practicing sustainability management to realize our Purpose, which is "Contributing to Life Enrichment and Advancement of Society by Creating the Future of Dining". In corporate management, we are committed to appropriate collaboration with multi-stakeholders in light of the growing importance of value creation with various stakeholders, including customers, business partners, employees, local communities, shareholders/investors, and the global environment. From the viewpoint that the appropriate distribution of earnings and results generated through collaborative value creation and productivity improvement to multiple stakeholders will lead to sustainable economic development, it is important to return profits to employees and give consideration to business partners, and we will promote the following initiatives.
1.Giving Back to Employees
We have set "Positive Work Environment / Employee Engagement" as one of our most important values, and each and every employee works together with his or her colleagues to create a cheerful workplace.
We will focus on maximizing added value by actively investing in the growth of all employees and the creation of a safe and secure living environment, thereby ensuring the sustainable growth and productivity of our group.In addition, as a human resource development policy, we believe that the growth of human resources is the greatest growth strategy, and in order to improve employees' knowledge and individual skills and maximize educational opportunities, we have established an environment in which employees can learn what they want to learn when they want to learn it without any burden, according to training content and purpose, including group training, web training, on-demand training and e-learning, and on-site operation training.
We practice employee development training with the goal of instilling our corporate philosophy, Purpose, Mission, and Values and enabling each individual to embody them.
In addition, with regard to raising wages, we are responding flexibly and promptly by taking a sincere approach through labor-management consultations, introducing a childcare support allowance system, and providing a temporary inflation allowance, while taking into account our profitability as a company and social conditions.We are also actively working to improve employee engagement by expanding non-wage benefits and offering a variety of work styles to suit life events.
We aim to continuously return profits to our employees through ongoing investments in human resources, such as the implementation of employee surveys on the workplace and work for the purpose of improving the workplace environment and human resource development, and the introduction of "Meeting For You," a one-on-one meeting for subordinates to further strengthen communication between supervisors and subordinates.
2. Consideration for Business Partners
We will continue our efforts to comply with the contents of the Declaration of Partnership Building.
3. Initiatives Related to Other Stakeholders
We believe in the importance of mutual understanding with all stakeholders and strive to actively engage in dialogue through various communication opportunities. We will take your opinions and requests seriously and strive to create value through management based on ESG perspectives.
We will continue to make steady efforts to address these items while checking the status of initiatives.
