Individual Challenges

Business growth through challenges and activities of individuals via autonomous career development - In Individual Challenges, employees are encouraged to set their own goals and expand their expertise, experience, and personal networks, promoting so-called autonomous career development. To this end, we will develop initiatives such as the Plus Challenge, an evaluation system, and training programs for highly specialized personnel in AI and security, as well as initiatives that actively engage employees outside the company. Through these programs, we aim to expand JobBoard and opportunities for holding two jobs, allowing employees to leverage their abilities, and realize business growth through individual challenges and activities, such as the new business creation program docomoSTARTUP, which enables employees to start their own businesses based on their proposals.

DE&I Activities (Harmony Program)

At DOCOMO, we promote Diversity, Equity & Inclusion to maximize the abilities of each individual by embracing race, nationality, gender (including gender identity and sexual orientation), time constraints, disabilities, diverse occupational abilities, and values. We continue to respect high-quality diversity and provide new value born from it, aiming for the sustainable growth of the company.
Additionally, to ensure that everyone can work vibrantly through the harmony of work and life, we collectively refer to DOCOMO's initiatives and measures as the “Harmony Program,” contributing to the work-in-life of each employee.

Personnel Systems and Measures
