Employment of People with Disabilities and Seniors

As of the end of March 2015, a total of 321 employees with disabilities, including 34 new recruits for fiscal 2014, worked at the Group's three life insurance companies, which account for 2.20 percent of the total number of employees. We will continue working to create a workplace environment that encourages and supports people with disabilities to work comfortably and promote employment of the disabled. The Group's three life insurance companies have introduced a re-employment program for employees reaching the mandatory retirement age. Under this program, individuals can be re-hired up to the age of 65.
