(People)
We make an effort to create an environment — and
an evaluation system — that offers people a sense of
fulfillment, an opportunity to grow with the company,
and room to exercise the complete extent of their
abilities. Only then will individual members of the Ricoh
Group make full use of their talent and act upon shared
policies. To accomplish this requires an HR management
system that goes beyond traditional paradigms and
mirrors the evolution of society and the world of work.
At the Ricoh Group, we encourage our global
workforce of approximately 110,000 employees to
share the values of “The RICOH Way,” the core of
our corporate philosophy. Common understanding
and practice of The RICOH Way is how we are able
to deliver consistent value to customers in whatever
country or region they are located. We also continue
to nurture employees that can respond to our rapidly
globalizing operations and the changing business
environment, and select and train future business
leaders. Our global human resources development
programs produce new value and innovation and
provide opportunities for professional and personal
growth.
Managing what we know about the capabilities
and characteristics of our employees around the
world, and matching the right people to the right
jobs, is another critical role of human resource
management. The Ricoh Group is developing common
evaluation criteria with cross-border applicability, a
centrally managed HR database, and a unified system
for performance evaluation, employee benefits, and
delegation of responsibilities and authority. We also
promote diversity and work-life balance to ensure
input from employees with varying backgrounds and
to help our people lead fulfilling professional and
personal lives.

Employee development and global mobility:
key drivers of our worldwide operations
In our rapidly changing, intensely competitive environment, we need responsive and
adaptable human resource (HR) management that helps create new value by cultivating
talented people who can make smart and timely decisions from a global perspective,
and by conducting strategic cross-border staff allocations. Fostering the true potential
of all employees is an investment in our business and the aim of the Ricoh Group’s HR
management, together with advancing our business in ways that benefit both society and
the planet.
