Overall Disclosure Profile
Shin-Etsu Chemical Co.,Ltd. is developing "T-shaped personnel" who deepen their specializations while also addressing adjacent fields. Centered on workplace instruction, it provides opportunities to learn leadership, problem-solving, and data use in AI and materials development. The filing also presents each laboratory's technical fields and responsibilities, specifically explaining progression from research to commercialization and mass production.
A distinguishing feature is the development process connecting goal setting, practical work, and reflection to subsequent growth. Training expenses and numbers assigned to universities are disclosed, but numbers of employees acquiring capabilities and the extent of skill use are not. Although employee capabilities and outcomes are intended to inform evaluation and compensation, information verifying effects of human capital initiatives on productivity and financial outcomes is limited.
Scores by Assessment Item
Scores assess disclosures in the Annual Securities Report. A score of zero does not mean that an initiative is not implemented or that employees lack capability.

Assessment Scope & Disclaimer
This assessment is based solely on information disclosed in the company's Japanese-language Annual Securities Report filed through EDINET.
It does not assess the human capital initiatives a company actually implements or the company's human capital capabilities themselves.
Items for which no disclosure was identified in the Annual Securities Report receive no points, regardless of whether the company actually implements the relevant initiatives.
This English-language assessment is a translation of the original Japanese assessment and is provided for convenience. In the event of any discrepancy, the Japanese assessment prevails.
