Communicating Our Commitment

Benesse Holdings, Inc. (Benesse) sees corporate social responsibility (CSR) as establishing a presence that is indispensable to customers, communities and society in general by supporting people's efforts to improve themselves and to address the challenges they face. Encapsulated in our corporate philosophy-“live well”-this commitment will not change now that we have adopted a holding company structure.

This website offers detailed information and data to provide an overview of CSR at Benesse. It also contains a wealth of information on the commitment and initiatives of each of our businesses and the resolve of our employees toward achieving the goals that exemplify Benesse's unwavering commitment and resolve in this regard.

We hope that the website will help our stakeholders to learn more about how Benesse interacts with the societies in which it operates, and will further their understanding of Benesse's initiatives in terms of CSR.
