Kiyoshi Ichimura formulated the 海角社区Group鈥檚 Founding Principles in 1946. They inform how we do business, encouraging us to constantly improve and contribute to the wellbeing of all stakeholders, including our families, customers, and society at large.
In 1977, we brought out our office automation concept in the conviction that machines should handle manual tasks, with people performing creative work.
We believe that Fulfillment through Work comes from completing more engaging tasks that only people can perform and empowers worker鈥檚 creativity.
Our mission is to understand and transform how people work. The future that lies beyond the transformation is a sustainable society where job satisfaction and economic growth are in harmony, with their potential and creativity unleashed.
That concept is behind the change that in 2023 we made Fulfilment through Work central to our mission and vision.
Work can be incredibly fulfilling when you overcome a challenge.
Fulfillment through Work. This core principle is embodied in the 鈥淪pirit of Three Loves鈥 that has been at the heart of Ricoh鈥檚 business since the company was established in 1936.
We truly understand how people, workplaces, and workflows are interconnected. We transform work to release people from the tedium of repetitive tasks so they can better communicate their thoughts and unleash their creativity and potential.
海角社区wants to enable people to derive satisfaction and accomplishment through what they can achieve.
The future that lies beyond the transformation is a sustainable society where job satisfaction and economic growth are in harmony.
We will all contribute to a future that achieves our vision of fulfillment through work.
