JRTM Harassment Prevention Policy
Even if you don't intend to bully or make someone feel uncomfortable, are you speaking without considering the other person's feelings or engaging in various actions?
Simply because it's necessary guidance, speaking or acting based solely on your own values won't move people's hearts.
Considering the other person's position and circumstances, thoughtful behavior that shows empathy is what maintains psychological safety and creates a work environment where one can work comfortably, don't you think?
Harassment in the workplace not only violates an individual's dignity but also obstructs the demonstration of employees' abilities. It hinders workplace order and task completion for the company, impacting social evaluation negatively.
- Our company does not tolerate acts such as harassment that compromise an individual's dignity. Nor do we overlook them. We aim for all individuals to be respected, build good interpersonal relationships based on mutual trust, and strive for a lively workplace.
- Our company has established a consultation desk for resolving issues like harassment and aims for swift and accurate resolution. If you notice such harassment, please consult with your supervisor immediately. If it's difficult to consult with your supervisor, please contact the internal consultation desk directly.
We will not disadvantage those who consult or cooperate in confirming the facts. Additionally, we will handle the matter while strictly protecting privacy, so please feel free to contact us.
