「Nikkei Sangyo keeps moving forward」
Top share holder of hard PVC lined steel pipe production shares, and also dedicated to various activities such as introducing new manufacturing technology and driving business overseas and onto the international stage.
We endeavor to go beyond our limits and achieve better
As I become one of the staff to face the challenge, I feel the support of my colleagues. My senior colleagues stay with me to share my concerns and extend their support. The workplace helps me improve and grow beyond my limit of today. To contribute to the future of Nikken Sangyo, I will keep moving forward. Nikken Sangyo provides the environment to raise me higher.
「A sometimes strict and also compassionate business」
This is a phrase I heard not long after joining the company. Since that time, I have always kept it in mind while doing my job. When I started I had nothing but a lack of experience, so I was frequently confused. However, in this work environment, I could ask openly about any doubts I that had, so I was always reassured and could continue on with my work. People also communicate ideas freely, so I had the courage to make my own suggestions as well. The Nishi-Akashi branch is not just domestic, we also does many overseas transactions, so there is the risk of misunderstanding from cultural differences, or just small mistakes with nuance, but I can start fresh and enjoy every day despite these difficulties. I am strict with myself because I would like to continue developing myself, to be able to make myself easily understood to those around me so that all parties involved can feel a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment.
「Using the best equipment in the world to bring about the best factory in the world」
With the introduction of things like HTLP and laser materials processing machines, Nikken Sangyo’s Wakayama factory has been in a state of constant evolution. When new equipment is introduced, there are also times when it can be daunting, but everyone puts their heads together and one step at a time, through trial and error we steadily create an optimal manufacturing environment. There are many hardships, but when things go well the team enjoys a shared pleasure. This leads to a work place that now gives birth to a sense of solidarity, and at the same time, a feeling of responsibility. I will always be proud to work for Nikken Sangyo, which is never satisfied with the present state of things, and always faces forward to continue walking on.
「Achieve with the support of team members!」
Gakuryoku! It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that this word charmed me into joining this company. The day after I joined the company I was suddenly taken on board a project and into discussions. This was the first day that I experienced the feeling of Gakuryoku. The management and senior staff members would listen to my opinions without any qualms, despite my being a new recruit. Everyone racks their brains just to make things a little better, or to achieve a goal through teamwork. The moment when a piece of equipment is introduced exactly as you have planned it out, the moment when the people on the factory floor combine efforts, become stronger and succeed - the there is great pleasure just from having pushed oneself. I plan to go on challenging myself with the support of all the fantastic team members: the management, the senior members, and all the people on the factory floor.
｢A challenging environment blessed with good staff｣
I left the company at which I had been employed for around three years, studied abroad in Japan, and upon returning home began job hunting once again, but finding employment again was difficult. In those discouraging times Nikken International Korea gave me another chance. Though the recruiting process was not even finished, I felt in over my head with little experience in the field, but a senior employee explained things to me so that they were easy to understand. I could tell that I was not alone, and could feel the support of all the staff, so I committed myself to my work. Nikken International Korea is an international affiliate having been newly built in 2010, so there are several projects in which each and every part must be created from scratch. Regardless of the field, trailblazing new paths is a difficult thing. However, this is also what really makes a job truly worthwhile. To Nikken, which made me who I am, I want to say “Kamsamnida” (Thank you – Korean.)
