Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
Promoting Diversirty, Equity & Inclusion not only leads to the provision of better products and services that cater to the increasingly diverse needs of customers but also helps employees accept and take advantage of one another’s differences while creating an environment in which each employee can fully demonstrate their capabilities. We believe this leads to the sustainable growth of ASICS.
