Expansion of “AEON Yume-mirai Nursery School”As of the end of February 2020, there are 30 AEON Yume-mi-rai (Dreams for the Future) Nursery Schools nationwide in the AEON group, which support employees with small children. 20 of them are operated within AEON MALL’s commercial facil-ities, and are open to employees of AEON group companies, sta of specialty stores as well as local residents. The nursery schools are open 24 hours every day of the year, in princi-ple, according to the business hours of each mall. The nursery school system helps facilitate an environment where specialty stores can employ sta who need childcare while at work and encourage them to continue working on a long term basis. By holding events that can only be done at a nursery inside a mall such as "Sport day" unaected by the weather in AEON Hall, or events that amplify the region's characteristics, we are providing opportunities for children to develop both mentally and physically. Alongside with having a system allowing all employees to work in a way that suits their life stage, we are also striving to establish a work environment where such systems can easily be used.Achieving Work-Life BalanceAEON Yume-mirai Nursery School (AEON MALL Iwaki Onahama)Diversity promotion is very signicant to our AEON MALL business. To reect our funda-mental philosophy "Customer First" at our malls where a variety of customers frequent, it is desirable to have a diverse range of workforce as the active exchange of opin-ions from dierent perspectives will lead to creative ideas. The number of female manag-ers increased from 115 (13.2%) at the end of FY2016 to 155 (17.4%) at the end of FY2019, and there has been a noticeable increase of female employees who are strongly motivated to take on the challenge of higher-level po-sitions. We were named "Nadeshiko Brand" which the Ministry of Economy, Trade and In-dustry and the Tokyo Stock Exchange jointly select from among outstanding listed compa-nies that promote women's empowerment in the workplace. Such accolades from external sources have contributed to enhancing our corporate brand value as well as to attracting excellent talents to our company. Regardless of gender, we have exible options so that our employees can work comfortably even when their life stage changes, such as childcare and nursing care, and we are working to lay a foundation for career development by creating a professional environment that makes these systems more accessible.Leveraging our diverse workforce as a corporate strengthDiversity and Decent Work Masahiko OkamotoDirectorExecutive General Manager, Administration DivisionAEON MALL CSR / ESG Report 202028
