PEOPLE
Before We Build Products, We Build People
Toward a company of the employees, by the employees, for the employees.
Technology is created by people. Osaka Blower aims to be an organization in which every employee plays a leading role in shaping the company's future.
An employee stock ownership ratio of about 40 percent—
As this figure shows, this is more than just a philosophy in words.
Our Mission
Before We Build Products, We Build People.
Osaka Blower is a company that starts not from products or technology, but from “people.” However excellent a design may be, it is human skill and human integrity that bring it to life.
Over our more than 100-year history, we have faced difficult choices during each downturn in the shipbuilding industry. Yet the company has endured because skilled people have come together and built trust. For the next 100 years as well, we will continue to make investing in our people our top priority.
Building the “Company for Employees” Osaka Blower Strives to Be
Comment by CEO
"Before we build products, we build people"—this has been our core value, passed down since our founding. I believe that management's greatest mission is to build an organization where every employee can work with pride and take ownership of the company's future as their own.
Co-Owned Company
Employees Sharing the Company’s Future — Toward a Co-Owned Company
The stock ownership program is a system that enables every employee to participate in management as a “leading player” in the company.
The growth of the company you work for helps you build your own assets—and this sense of ownership forms the foundation for developing self-directed talents.
Executive stock ownership association established in 2023; employee stock ownership association in 2024. Employees and officers currently hold a high proportion of the company's shares—a combined 39.9 percent equity stake. The sense of ownership fostered by the program supports the goal of developing self-directed talent.
⚫︎ Executive Stock Ownership Association 23.7%
⚫︎ Employee Stock Ownership Association 16.2%
Other 60.1%
CEO MESSAGE
"Nothing Is Ever Wasted."
— I Truly Hope Young People Will Take the Leap and Challenge Themselves.
Before we build products, we build people — this is my conviction.
The employee stock ownership program, personnel evaluation system, training programs, and employee-led projects—all of these are investments designed to enable every employee to take ownership of the company's future.
I want us to remain a company that continues to support people as they take on challenges.
Our 107-year history has been built by people who continued to take on challenges.
For the next 100 years as well, I want us to remain a company that starts from people and never hesitates to invest in them.
