Diversity & Inclusion

NOMURA Group believes that the individuality of each employee is a source of creating new value, and is committed to creating an environment that respects diverse circumstances and values and realizes diverse working styles.

Understanding and penetration of diversity and inclusion

As part of our efforts to foster an understanding of diversity and a culture of diversity among all employees, we provide "Introductory Training on Diversity and Inclusion" and "Unconscious Bias Training."

Promoting women's participation and advancement in the workplace

Our company strives to create an environment where women can work comfortably, be motivated, demonstrate their abilities, and continue working. As a specific initiative, we are formulating and promoting an action plan based on the Act on Promotion of Women's Participation and Advancement in the Workplace (commonly known as the Act on Promotion of Women's Participation and Advancement in the Workplace).

Action Plan

We will create an environment in which each employee, regardless of gender, can work in a healthy and energetic manner, achieve a good work-life balance, and demonstrate high levels of creativity.

① Aim to increase the percentage of women in management positions to 15% or more
② Achieve childcare leave utilization rate of 100% for women and 60% or more for men

・For the latest data on NOMURA Ltd.'s promotion of women's participation in the workforce, please see the "Database of companies that promote women's participation in the workforce" has been published.

Promotion of active participation of people with disabilities

By providing jobs suited to the individual needs of each employee with a disability and by using satellite offices with support, we provide a safe and secure working environment for people with a variety of disabilities.

Initiatives to support work-life balance

We provide various systems related to work styles (flextime, telework, etc.) to support a balance between work and treatment, as well as handbooks related to nursing care.
