Our DEI
In the ANA Group, we respect diversity in terms of age, nationality, gender, values, and disabilities, and we are committed to creating an inclusive workplace where each individual can work with vitality and enthusiasm.
3 elements of DEI:
- Diversity (nationality, religion, cultural background, generation, disability, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, values, experience, working style etc.)
- Equity (support based on one's diversity/ fair challenge opportunities)
- Inclusion (understanding of individual differences, awareness of the importance of each other's support as a team)
We respect the diversity of our employees and strive to contribute to a better society by creating a workplace where everyone can play an active role.
ANA Group DEI Slogan
We position DEI as one of the pillars of our business strategy and have established a motto to serve as the foundation for the actions of each and every member of the ANA Group. This motto aims to ensure that all employees understand and practice the importance of DEI.
"Wings" express each person's individuality and differences. The idea is to create the future of the ANA Group by allowing each employee to spread their wings and take off.
