Support for balancing work and childcare

EBARA has been enhancing its support system for balancing work and childcare, including remote work, short-time work, and childcare leave. Furthermore, we are working to create an environment where employees can have fair access to systems and support through the development of a portal site and various seminars, and we are focusing on promoting the use of childcare leave. We will continue to work on creating an environment where everyone, regardless of gender, can balance work and childcare and thrive in their own way.

Specific Initiatives

Seminar on supporting work-childcare balance

We held an internal seminar focusing on creating an environment that makes it easy for men to take parental leave and alleviating concerns about income.

Management training

We provide training for managers, viewing men taking childcare leave not simply as a "break" but as an opportunity to increase engagement between individuals and the organization.

In-house study session

There are also active lunchtime study sessions where employees can bring in their own topics of interest. During the event, a member of the DE&I Promotion Department acted as a lecturer and introduced the childcare leave system and its benefits.

Support for balancing life events portal site

To provide necessary information to employees who need support for balancing work and family life, we have established an internal portal site, which introduces the details of the system, how to use it, and employee parental leave experiences.

Summer vacation short-term after-school program "EBA Land"

To support employees with childcare responsibilities, who face challenges during summer vacation, we run an in-house short-term after-school program called "EBA Land."

Supporting the 100% paternity leave pledge for men

We have positioned the "male parental leave acquisition rate" as one of the important indicators for supporting diverse work styles of employees, and have endorsed the "100% Male Parental Leave Declaration."
