The Komatsu Way and Policy on Human Resource Development

Komatsu regards human resources as one of the most important management resources for creating new value, and thus we are continuously investing in human resources. Specifically, we invest in human resources through wages, allowances, bonuses, benefits, and the expansion of human resource development programs. By continuously engaging in these activities, we aim to achieve sustainable growth and development for both the company and its employees, while also being aware of the changes in the internal and external environment and their connection with management policies.

In 2006, Komatsu formulated the Komatsu Way as a shared set of values for its employees worldwide to promote global development and sustainable growth. We are now working to disseminate the Komatsu Way to employees of diverse cultures and customs. We are continuing our human resource development efforts based on these activities.

In its mid-term management plan, Komatsu has set "enrich human resources base with diversity" as a key part of its growth strategy and to achieve it the company is developing various measures that focus on the "enhancement of diversity and inclusion," "offering a variety of talent development opportunities and improvement of employee engagement," and "human resources development for digital applications and open-innovation.”
