Our Values
A common thread running throughout all of Hitachi, our values have been the guiding principles behind all that we do for over a century. They are values shared by everyone and put into practice every day.
Harmony (Wa)
Stressing interdependence over personal interests, the concept of harmony is at the heart of Japanese culture, informing all interactions, whether social or business.
For us, this translates into a belief that only by showing respect, are you able to earn respect. And that extends to everyone we work with, not only our customers, but our colleagues and suppliers too.
Sincerity (Makoto We)
We always strive to act with sincerity, and integrity. After all, our reputation depends to a great extent on how we are perceived to do business, which is without any degree of pretence, deceit, or hypocrisy.
Sincerity for us means ensuring fairness in all our endeavours, while putting the needs of our employees and customers very much at the centre of all we do.
Pioneering Spirit (Kaitakusha – Seishin)
Driving innovation and seeking new challenges is what we’re all about. It has been right from the start. And it’s our ambition that sees us bring new technologies to life for the benefit of society and companies alike.
Our pioneering spirit also means we are fearlessly flexible when it comes to adapting to the changing needs of our employees and customers.
Creating a great place to work
