Declaration of the Sumitomo Metal Mining Group on DE&I
The SMM Group, inheriting the original Sumitomo business, has contributed to the development of industry and society by providing materials, continuously balancing tradition with innovation to meet the ever-changing needs of society. To fulfill our social mission and realize our future growth strategy, diverse talent and a spirit of collaborative creation are essential, which we regard as an important management issue.
We promote DE&I so that each employee can grow with pride, motivation, and the joy of working in an ideal working condition*. To connect the new values created through the promotion of DE&I to the sustainable growth of our company, we will undertake the following initiatives.
- We respect not only diversity in attributes such as gender, nationality, and age, but also diverse abilities, experiences, and values, and we utilize opinions and ideas that support our “MONOZUKURI RYOKU (manufacturing and operational capability)”.
- We encourage our employees by providing them with opportunities to take on challenges, fully utilize their abilities and strengths, and smoothly advance their cycle of autonomous growth and career development.
- We create an environment where all employees can accept each other, feel comfortable sharing ideas, and work together as one toward our goals.
To fulfill our social mission and responsibilities as a manufacturing company and realize our long-term vision of “Becoming the World Leader in the Non-Ferrous Metals Industry”, we will deepen our efforts in DE&I.
