Goals of the JIWE

The Japan Institute of Workers’ Evolution (JIWE) was established in April 1986, following the introduction of the Equal Employment Opportunity Law in the same year. The JIWE aims to establish good employment relations within companies, improve the welfare of female workers, workers who care for children or family members and part-time workers (hereinafterreferred to as “female workers, etc.”) and contribute to socioeconomic development by undertaking a variety of programs to improve employment management and support the harmonization of work and family responsibilities of female workers, etc., thereby enabling female workers, etc. to make maximum use of their skills and abilities.
