Human Resources Development System

We create our own work environment. We share our vision for the future and actively work to create the environment necessary to achieve it.

FELISSIMO Club Activity PICK
UP

This system allows employees to dedicate 20% of their working hours to activities they are passionate about and can share with customers, in addition to their assigned roles in their respective departments. Beyond roles, departments, and career paths, each employee is encouraged to pursue something they genuinely want to try, aiming for its commercialization. There are various clubs, such as "FELISSIMO Cat Club," which works with cat-loving customers; "FELISSIMO Temple Club," which finds hints for enriching our lives and hearts from temple culture; and "Forest Activities Club," which supports forest conservation through reforestation and environmentally friendly products. Each club expands its activities into areas of interest that go beyond their assigned work roles. Recently, many clubs have shown remarkable success, even being featured in the media.

There are 15 active FELISSIMO clubs.

Kobe School

Once a month, we hold "Kobe School," where we invite authorities active in various fields to give lectures. Not only are our customers welcome, but our employees can also participate. Young employees play an active role in planning the invited authorities and serving as staff to welcome guests on the day, taking on the responsibility of managing everything from pre-event preparations to setting up and guiding guests, so that they can have a pleasant experience. This is not only an opportunity to interact directly with customers, but also an opportunity to gain hints for enriching one's own work and life from the talks of the authorities.

Long-term special leave

The "Long-Term Special Leave System" allows employees to take a one-month vacation if they participate in the "Kobe School" and meet certain conditions. How people spend their one-month vacation varies from person to person. It's designed to encourage employees to focus on things they wouldn't normally have time for, such as long-term overseas travel, studying for qualifications, or holding exhibitions, and to apply those experiences to their work. To date, more than 180 employees have taken this leave. Based on the concept of "accumulating the value of creative 'time' for your future self," working adults can also enjoy a summer vacation of their lives.

Career support

Employees can consult with in-house certified career consultants. We provide support for employees to proactively build their careers, offering advice on everything from daily work-related issues to balancing work with childcare or elder care.

Qualification acquisition support system

In addition to supporting employees in obtaining work-related qualifications, we also offer a "Happiness Allowance for Mutual Happiness" to help them broaden their horizons and discover their strengths, thereby enriching their lives.

others

We have established training programs such as management training, study sessions on personal information and other related topics conducted by internal specialist departments, and study sessions on trends and planning. We encourage employees to have a desire to learn beyond their roles and departments after joining the company.

Childcare leave system

Our "Childcare Leave System" allows employees to take childcare leave until their child turns two years old. The number of male employees taking childcare leave is increasing year by year, and in 2011 we were certified as a "Kurumin*" company, recommended by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. In 2023 we were also certified as a "Hyogo/Kobe Women's Empowerment Promotion Company" (Mimosa Company). We support working dads and moms with the hope that they will also cherish happy time with their families.
* If an employer develops and implements an action plan to support employees with childcare responsibilities, and the results meet certain requirements, the employer may be certified as a childcare support employer by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare.

Childcare-related reduced working hours system

Our "Childcare Short-Time Work System" allows employees to reduce their daily working hours until their child completes the third grade of elementary school. It supports working parents in balancing work and family life. We believe that ensuring our employees have fulfilling family lives and enjoy a fulfilling daily life as consumers is also connected to understanding our customers' perspectives.

Bone marrow donor system

This system allows employees to take special leave during the rest period required when donating bone marrow. This system was established in response to the actions of employees who had a strong desire to help those in need, to start with what they can do, and to do something for others.

Company cafeteria

Espace FELISSIMO has a Santa Cafe (cafeteria), where many employees gather every day during lunchtime for a lively meal. While there isn't a cafeteria at the head office, employees can order bento boxes and delicious bread during lunchtime.

Club activities

We have countless company clubs, both official and unofficial, including an "Outdoor Club" for activities like bouldering and fishing, a futsal club, a cello club (whose president is also a member and which performs in professional concerts), and a kimono dressing club. The company encourages employees to fully enjoy the things they love.

others

Various social insurance programs, personal asset formation incentive programs, caregiving leave programs, reduced working hours programs for caregiving, employee stock ownership plans, employee discount sales programs, mutual aid associations, retirement allowance programs, long-service award programs, etc.
