Gender Equality

To increase women in worlplace is an important issue for the construction industry due to future shortage of workforce caused by lower birthrate.
Not only securing workforce, higher contribution is expected towards female workforce in fields such as design and interior where consciousness towards safety and comfortableness are requuired. Thus, many female coworkers are making high contribution in our Group, especially centering around design department.
Recently, the number of female coworkers at construction sites is increasing, with 25 coworkers in Takamatsu Corporation as well as 16 in Asunaro Aoki Construction (As of April 2019)
