Overall Disclosure Profile

KADOKAWA CORPORATION emphasizes developing and acquiring personnel who support continuous IP creation and global expansion, improving the work environment, and dialogue. Qualification support specifies eligibility conditions, including the Eiken Pre-1 level. The filing discloses that 7.6% of employees at the standalone company are eligible for its language-qualification incentive program. The filing also presents usage records for its FA program, which lets employees undertake different work, and for remote work.

Its human resources system bases employment conditions on roles and outcomes. It provides opportunities for dialogue with supervisors and for communicating opinions to management. Results by engagement-survey question are also presented, but they assess management initiatives, use of techniques, and an environment conducive to creative work. Explanations enabling assessment of work outcomes from development and placement, or changes in employees' willingness to contribute to outcomes, are 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.

Filing Information

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.
