What Gender Equality Means to Recruit: Fostering Forward-Thinking and Creativity
Recruit Co., Ltd.
In Japanese companies, the representation of women in management positions is strikingly low, less than half compared to the worldwide average of 30%. Despite its commitment to promoting diversity, equity and inclusion since its inception in 1960, Recruit in Japan hasn't been an exception. In 2006, its women's representation in managerial positions was only 10%. However, the company has made significant strides in transforming its environment to become more equitable and welcoming for everyone, and today in 2023, around 30% of its management positions are held by women.
