External Evaluation

MUFG earned 4.5 stars in the Nikkei SDGs Management Survey 2024, conducted by Nikkei Inc., designed to evaluate and rate businesses’ efforts toward the realization of the United Nations’ SDGs.

MUFG has been awarded 4.5 stars in the "NIKKEI Sustainable Management Survey, Smart Work Edition," which recognizes leading companies that aim to maximize corporate value by fully utilizing human resources, accelerating human resource investment, fostering new innovations, and improving productivity.

The Smart Work Management Survey has been conducted by Nikkei Inc. since 2017. It targets listed companies and prominent unlisted companies nationwide, evaluating them on a five-star scale based on three elements: human resource utilization, human resource investment, and technology utilization.

The efforts of the return-to-work support program "Palette," which supports the balance between work and childcare, have been awarded the Excellence Award in the Corporate Human Resources category at the 13th Japan HR Awards (hosted by the "HR Awards" Executive Committee and supported by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare).
Our company promotes DEI (Diversity, Equity & Inclusion) to empower each employee with diverse values and backgrounds to contribute to a sustainable future and advance to new stages for all stakeholders. As part of this initiative, we have developed the return-to-work support program "Palette," which helps approximately 1,750 employees who take maternity and childcare leave each year to seamlessly return to the workplace and balance work and childcare.
We will further accelerate the creation of a workplace environment where employees can continuously grow and thrive at each stage of their lives. By recognizing and appreciating each other's differences and strengths, we aim to create new value and build an organization that embodies MUFG's purpose of "Empowering a Brighter Future."

MUFG has been selected for inclusion in Semi- Nadeshiko Brand, a recognition jointly conferred by Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and  Industry(METI) and the Tokyo Stock Exchange(TSE).

In November 2024, a number of initiatives in Japan were evaluated and received the top gold rating^(note1) on the “PRIDE Index^(note2)", gold rating for the fifth consecutive year and the sixth time. 

Each Group company is Kurumin certif­ied under the Act on Advancement of Measures to Support Raising Next-Generation Children. This certif­ication by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) recognizes a business as a childcare support company based on set requirements in support of balancing work and childcare. Companies that meet even higher standards receive a Platinum Kurumin certif­ication.

Additionally, we have also received a new certification “Plus”, which was established to recognize a company which supports employees in balancing work and fertility treatments.
