Mitsui Chemicals has agreed with the "100% Paternity Leave Declaration" for men.

三井化学株式会社（所在：東京都中央区、代表取締役社長：橋本修）は、株式会社ワーク・ライフバランス（代表取締役：小室淑恵、以下「WLB」）が主催する「男性育休100％宣言」に賛同いたしました。

■男性育休100％宣言とは

WLBが主催している企画で、企業や官庁が男性社員の育児休業を100％取得できる職場づくりを目指すことを宣言するものです。2024年4月時点では、約180の組織が賛同・宣言をしております。

三井化学は「多様な人材が自主・自律・協働を通じて価値を創出できる組織」を目指しています。そのためには、全社員がライフステージごとに多様な働き方を選択しながら、生き生きと働ける環境づくりが必要であり、男性を含めたすべて社員の育休取得が当たり前になるような組織でありたいと考えています。

当社の男性育休取得率は現在90％と高い水準にありますが、より多くの社員が育休を取得しライフ・ワーク共に充実したキャリアを築いてもらうために更なる高みを目指して、「男性育休100％宣言」を行うことといたしました。

これまで育児と仕事の両立支援策として、法定を上回る育休制度整備（産前パパ休業、子が3歳になる年度末まで取得可能など）、フレックスタイムやテレワーク制度の早期導入などを行っています。また、管理職向けの男性育休研修や、パートナーとともに参加できる父親学級等も開催し、社員のマインド変革も同時に進めています。

今後も育休制度の浸透・活用促進、働き方改革、リスキリングやDX等による業務の見直し・高度化を含む社員の生産性向上施策などをさらに推し進め、男性を含めたすべての社員が育休をより取得しやすい環境を整えてまいります。

Mitsui Chemicals, Inc. (located in Chuo-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Osamu Hashimoto) has endorsed the Work-Life Balance Co., Ltd.'s (Representative Director: Yoshie Komuro, hereafter "WLB") "100% Paternity Leave Declaration".

What is the 100% Paternity Leave Declaration?

This is a plan sponsored by WLB to declare that companies and government agencies will aim to create a workplace where male employees can take childcare leave 100%. As of April 2024, about 180 organizations have endorsed or declared.

Mitsui Chemicals aims to be an organization where diverse personnel can create value through self-autonomous and cooperative efforts. To achieve this, an environment that allows all employees to work in a lively manner by choosing various ways of working according to their life stages is necessary. We believe that our organization should be one in which all employees, including men, take childcare leave as a matter of course.

Our company's male childcare leave acquisition rate is currently at a high level of 90%, but in order for more employees to take childcare leave and build a fulfilling career in both life and work, we have decided to declare the "100% Paternity Leave Declaration" and aim for further heights.

We have also implemented various measures to support the balance of child-rearing and work, such as establishing a childcare leave system beyond the legal requirements (such as prenatal papa leave and the ability to acquire it until the end of the fiscal year when the child turns 3), and early introduction of flextime and telework systems. We also hold male childcare leave training for management and father's classes that can be attended with partners to promote changes in employee mindset.

We will continue to further promote measures to improve productivity of all employees, including promoting the adoption and use of childcare leave systems, promoting work style reforms, and reviewing and enhancing business with reskilling and DX, in order to create an environment where all employees, including men, can easily acquire childcare leave.
