Tackling economic inequality

Tackling economic inequality

Hitachi has actively addressed workforce inequality, appointing Lorena Dellagiovanna as our first Chief Diversity Officer and board member in April 2021, alongside Claire Thomas as CDIO. Resulting Success: 1. Inclusive Recruitment and further Development Practices: We prioritise fair treatment and equal opportunities for contract workers, incorporating CV blind interviewing. Our self-directed DEI training platform including subjects of inclusive leadership, creating an inclusive culture, how to overcome bias and many other topics has boosted female and non-Japanese executives at Hitachi by 10%. Now Focusing on emerging talent, we sponsor the 'Festival of the Girl' in London. 2. Investment in Physical and Mental Health: We offer Financial Advice, Career Advice, and anonymous mental health support both internally, through our Mental Health First Aiders, and externally via Optum/MyHeathWebb. We have an Employee Assistance program that ensures employees, and their dependents have access to professional counselling should they require it. More widely, we implemented the Mental Health at Work commitment standards, tailored to the Hitachi workforce. We also have 4 dedicated sessions led by the Equality Institute on how to talk about gender identity, being an ally, using LGBTQ+ identity as a superpower and transgender 101. 3. Environmental Innovator: Hitachi aims to be an innovator, reducing carbon for governments, cities, and customers. The Environmental Vision emphasizes solving environmental issues for a higher quality of life and a sustainable society. Partnering with Rainforest Connection, Hitachi develops data-driven solutions to protect rainforests, combat illegal logging, and preserve biodiversity. As a Principal Partner of COP26, Hitachi contributed to decarbonization and climate action. Committed to a Net Zero society, Hitachi strengthens climate targets across the entire value chain by 2050. We were also key contributors at COP28. In conclusion, By implementing improvements and actively addressing inequality, Hitachi aims to create an inclusive and supportive work environment.
