Message from the President

Opportunities for Life We provide value through information to let you discover “Opportunities for Life” Recruit Group has been helping people overcome all kinds of negatives such as dissatisfactions, frustrations, inconveniences, concerns and so on. It has also assisted their way forward, creating employment and boosting consumption through information magazines, websites, counter services and so on. On the other hand, our clients adapt to the needs of customers and users, which are changing ceaselessly with the surrounding environment. They also help trigger the reform or advancement of corporate activity itself, expanding industrial development. This is a cycle within which we must also operate. I believe that "optimally matching industries and people", a task performed by Recruit Group for society, will remain our primordial role and strength, even in the IT era. Therefore, we will strive harder than ever to help you discover “Opportunities for Life” by improving all the products and services of Recruit Group continuously. We will give you optimal support as well as develop services, not only within Japan but also worldwide.

Masumi Minegishi President, CEO, and Representative Director Recruit Holdings Co.,Ltd.

At Recruit Jobs, “JOBS ACTION” is used as a collective term for our vision of the future that we are aiming to achieve, our promise to the general public, and our promise to ourselves.

Our Programs and Systems

Programs and systems that support our unique Recruit culture New RING Program for encouraging employees to submit proposals for new business undertakings New RING is a general term used to describe the various contests for new business projects that are held within the Recruit Group. First started in 1983 under the name RING (Recruit Innovation Group) and renamed to New RING in 1990, this program is held every year and has helped to produce many new businesses, including Zexy, TOWNWORK, Hot Pepper, R25, and Jyuken Sapuri. With the launch of our new operating structure in 2012, the program has evolved to enable group companies to hold their own new business contests under the New RING brand. Among these individual contests, the Recruit Ventures contest held by Recruit Holdings accepts entries at any time and holds a review panel every month as a platform for business development that generates major core businesses ten years in the future. At the Recruit Group, New RING is viewed as a way to demonstrate one pillar of the Recruit Group’s Management Philosophy – Creation of New Value – and also is a valuable opportunity for employees to submit proposals and develop new businesses based on their own interests and ideas.

FORUM Event for sharing professional knowledge across the Recruit Group Co-hosted by the Recruit Group companies, the FORUM is a knowledge sharing event for all Recruit Group employees in Japan and around the world that is held in order to accelerate the creation of new value and individual growth.

Diversity At the Recruit Group, one of our Management Philosophies is respect for all individuals, which signifies the importance of enabling employees to reach their full potential regardless of gender. We at the Recruit Group have been promoting diversity since 2006 with the aim of encouraging the active participation of female employees. Our efforts began by addressing the issue of long working hours. In 2007, we further established an on-site day-care center within our corporate headquarters building. These and other initiatives focusing on work-life balance have been implemented to develop an environment that allows employees to work with stability. In 2010, we expanded our focus to include initiatives that promote the participation of women in management and corporate decision-making positions. With the change of our governance structure in October 2012, we have been creating a culture that promotes diversity in the Recruit Group workplace.

Our target for women in corporate decision-making positions In 2012, we set a numerical target to increase the percentage of women in corporate decision-making (as Executive Officers or positions with comparable authority) throughout key Recruit Group companies in Japan to 10% or more by April 2015. In October 2012, women held only 5 of these positions, accounting for 5.3% of the total. As of April 2015, 17 of these positions, or 13.2%, are held by women, successfully meeting our numerical target. Our new mid- to long-term numerical target from 2015 is for women to represent at least 30% of manager positions throughout key Recruit Group companies in Japan by April 2018.

The Smart Work Project was launched to help all employees create a positive, upwards cycle in their lives and in their work. In order to help employees effectively and efficiently perform their job duties within the given time period, this project seeks to develop useful tools, review work priorities, and improve workflows while also ensuring that independent efforts taken by each team are shared through the in-house magazine. As a result, this project is not only improving employee productivity but also helping to ease their concerns about balancing their work and family responsibilities.

Recruit Marketing Partners : Work style change initiative Recruit Marketing Partners is implementing a workstyle change initiative in the aim to offer a workplace that supports individual work styles. As the first step, a feasibility study was conducted to explore the possibility of remote working as an option for employees. By developing an environment where employees can independently choose their own work style, we are focused on supporting the growth of each individual employee.

CSR Policy Seeking a sustainable world of plenty, we contribute to society through all of our corporate activities. To do this, we take a long-term view in addressing social issues, and commit ourselves to Three Guiding Principles and Five Core Themes.

Five Core Themes 1. Enabling more people to flourish by creating opportunities to work Work provides an important opportunity for people to connect with society and live fulfilling lives. We will create opportunities for everyone to freely choose their own unique work style. It is our aim to help create a society which enables more people to unleash their full potential, grow through work and thus flourish.

2. Supporting diverse ways of living

Three Guiding Principles Meeting society’s expectations We aim not only to meet society’s expectations, but to gain insight into social issues and contribute to their solution.

Contributing to society through our business We shall continue our efforts to resolve social issues through our business

Fulfilling our responsibilities as a corporate citizen Acknowledging our role as a leading company, we shall be responsive to requests on a global level.

R e c r u i t H o l d i n g s C o ., L t d .

As the pace of change in society accelerates, people’s values and ways of living are diversifying. Through actions that respond to the needs for regional revitalization and the demands of an aging society, we will provide a wider range of choices to meet diverse, individual needs. We aspire to help create a society in which all people can enjoy ways of living that reflect their true selves.

3. Empowering tomorrow’s talents Drawing out the potential of each person is essential for a brighter and more fulfilling world in which all individuals can flourish. In Japanese society, with its low birth rate, it is of particular importance to support and develop children and the young. We will strive to contribute to a society with less educational disparity and which meets the needs of all who are eager to learn. We will also endeavour to foster the next generation of leaders through career education and the training of human resources with global skills.

4. Practicing and promoting innovative work style Workstyles continue to evolve as the times change. We will lead the way to a society in which the right of each individual to a fulfilling life is respected, and where people can work with purpose and enthusiasm. To do so, we shall ourselves promote diversity and create work styles that may serve as models for Japanese society. In particular, we will show various innovative ways in which women can play an active role in the workplace, an area where Japan lags behind the international community.

5. Respecting human rights and the environment Respect for the human rights of each individual is the precondition for creating a society in which all people can flourish. We shall respect basic labour rights while eliminating discriminations and infringements upon human rights in all corporate activities. At the same time, to protect the global environment that serves as the stage for all human endeavours, we are working to expand the scope of our environmental efforts through our business activities, products, and services in order to contribute to the realization of a sustainable society.

Community Involvement and Social Contribution Activities One of the Recruit Group’s CSR Three Actions is “fulfilling our responsibilities as a corporate citizen.” Our CSR activities are focused on contributing to society, but we also recognize that there are many issues that cannot be resolved by this strategy alone and many expectations placed on us by the public. We are committed to being a leading company that contributes and gives back to local communities with the awareness that business growth translates into greater responsibility as a corporate citizen.

TOWNWORK TRY! WORK

The Recruit Group has made use of the experience gained through our business activities to develop a program that supports young people searching for work. Offered free-ofcharge since 2011 in cooperation with 54 universities and 52 NPOs, the program is held across Japan and recorded 4,173 participants in fiscal 2014. Of the total of 15,000 young jobseekers who participated since 2011, more than 60% received a job offer within 3 months after participation.

TOWNWORK TRY! WORK is a work experience program in which Recruit Group employees visit Japanese junior high schools to give presentations on discovering and communicating the satisfaction found in working. A total of 282 employees have given presentations to 10,563 junior high schools over 9 years, including 39 employees who gave presentations to 1,631 students at 11 junior high schools in fiscal 2014.

Creation Gallery G8 and Guardian Garden

Subsidiary and grant funding

Recruit operates two galleries in the Ginza area of Tokyo: Creation Gallery G8 and Guardian Garden, which have been in operation for 31 years and 25 years respectively. Creation Gallery G8 is located on the first floor of Recruit’s registered headquarters in the Ginza 8-chome area and mainly showcases the works of top designers under the theme of richer lives through design. The Guardian Garden is located on the basement level of a building in the Ginza 7-chome area and has supported the creative activities of many young artists by holding competitions to discover and foster young talent. As an annual event, a charity exhibition is held at the end of each year. In fiscal 2014, the exhibition featured Japanese-style bound journals that were designed by 187 designers and created by people with disabilities in the Tohoku region. Proceeds are donated to the Japanese prefectures that were affected by the 2011 earthquake and tsunami.

The Ezoe Memorial Foundation is a Japanese public interest incorporated foundation that was established in 1971 to support individuals with leadership potential, individuals with the desire to learn, and other individuals with future potential. The idea for the foundation originated after exploring ways to contribute to society in the tenth year since the founding of Recruit. Since then, the foundation has awarded scholarships to 562 individuals, many of whom have developed to become active participants in their respective fields. In recent years, support is being offered to young individuals who are involved in music, arts, and sports around the world. In fiscal 2014, the foundation awarded scholarships to 18 individuals and grants to 3 businesses.

History of Our Services and Products Our beginnings date back to 1960, when we first started as an advertising agency for a college paper. We have since expanded our business scope significantly. In October 2012, we adopted a holding company structure to launch a new Recruit Group in the aim for further growth. The timeline below provides a brief overview of our history. In 1960, Recruit was launched from a prefab unit located on the rooftop of the Mori building in Tokyo’s Nishi Shimbashi district.

Since then, Recruit has established a history of creating new value and new opportunities. In the more than half a century since our founding, we have been using a wide variety of media channels to offer open access to information that was previously available only to a select few. The Recruit Group has a history of taking on new challenges in constantly proposing new value and new opportunities, adapting to changing times and needs. Below you can find a summary of our unique history as well as some of the services and products that we have developed.

Helping people make their own decisions through the liberalization and advent of information. It all started with a new magazine business that was launched to bring together and address the needs of two specific groups: companies that are looking for people to recruit and students who are looking for jobs.

Students making their own decisions. Transformation of HR utilization. We launched our inaugural issue of “KIGYO E NO SHOTAI” (Invitation to Companies), inspired by the job information guide book “Career” distributed at American universities. This publication is the forerunner of the “books containing only advertisements” that Recruit is well-known for.

By offering open access to previously exclusive information, we helped ensure that people can search for homes without restrictions. We also helped make it possible for people to easily change jobs and have countless chances to take on new challenges.

In Japan, housing information includes information on the amount of time required to walk to the relevant home from the nearest train station. Previously, the seller was able to create advertisements without restrictions. For this reason, the rules and standards used were inconsistent and resulted in housing information that would indicate a walk time that was much shorter than the actual time required. To address this problem, our “JUTAKU JOHO” magazine adopted a standard measure for walking distance, in which 80 meters is calculated as 1 minute. “JUTAKU JOHO” was also the magazine that developed the floor plan drawings that are commonplace in real estate listings today.

For example, we offered a service that delivered the relevant information to potential condominium buyers after they registered their preferences such as desired budget, location, and room dimensions. From the early days of the internet when use was confined to only a limited few, our “Mix-Juice” service experimented with a variety of ideas.
