Multi-Stakeholder Policy
Kajima has a corporate philosophy of “striving to continually advance our business operations and contribute to society.” We aim to maintain the confidence of all our stakeholders, including customers, business partners, employees, local communities, stockholders and investors, and strive to establish appropriate multi-stakeholder partnerships based on the understanding that collaborative value creation with diverse stakeholders is certain to contribute to sustainable growth and improving the medium- to long-term corporate value of the Kajima Group. Furthermore, we recognize the importance of providing returns to employees and giving due consideration to business partners from the perspective that the appropriate distribution of revenue and results generated through collaborative value creation and productivity improvement to multiple stakeholders will strengthen the Group’s management base and lead to sustainable economic growth. We will accordingly carry out the following:
1. Returns to employees
In the “people” items of the “Kajima Group Goals,” we make the following commitments: “securing high engagement from diverse human resources who leverage their unique abilities” and “ensuring every employee always takes the initiative in taking on new challenges.” We are also planning in our Medium-Term Business Plan, which was established in 2024, to “develop people and create systems that will promote growth and change.”We will continually do our utmost to promote sustainable growth and productivity improvement in order to maximize added value, not only through preferentially investigating management resources into promising growth areas but also through other efforts, such as developing talent, improving employees’ skills.Building upon this, we aim to deliver sustainable returns to employees by raising wages in an appropriate manner in consideration of the situation of the Group reflecting the revenue and results produced through the above efforts, while at the same time by getting down to the comprehensive improvement of working conditions in other ways as well, mainly through investing in human resources through the education and training.
[Individual Items]
In more specific terms, we offered a raise in base salaries for the second consecutive year in the annual wage improvement in FY2024. We increased the average basic pay, including periodic pay raises, by around 9% compared to the previous fiscal year. We also further raised the amount of bonuses, which had been increased on a continued basis, making particularly generous payments to child-rearing generations, who usually had more expenses. As regards education and training, we endeavored to facilitate the independent growth of our younger employees. For example, we gave them a wider variety of lectures in which in-house lecturers taught them based on many different specific examples and enabled employees across a wider age range to use the mentor system. We also separately provided training to four different stages of managers, from new managers to executives, to help them improve their managerial skills to meet the standards required of their positions. We will make proactive efforts to develop human resources who have the advanced expertise required to meet the expectations of our ever-changing society and customers. Further, we will ensure they have the managerial skills required to manage organizations and carry out projects. At the same time, we will continue to improve the environment to accommodate the diversifying learning needs of employees and their learning initiatives.
2. Consideration to business partners
Kajima will continue working to comply with the contents of its Declaration of Partnership Building.

We will work to build proper relationships with business partners that are exempt from consumption tax based on the government’s published views on approach to the invoice system for tax-exempt entities and their business partners.
With respect to the items above, we will steadily implement measures while continuing to monitor progress.
