Basic Approach
The Fujifilm Group has brought evolution to communications in society through a fusion of familiar paper data with digital data and on to a seamless integration with cloud services and mobile solutions. Access to and the sharing of information in various forms with ease and without any conscious awareness of the digital divide expands the possibilities for different services and working styles in every possible place—in offices and government organizations and in education and medical care. By giving value to communication with the focus on people, Fujifilm will continue to support a wide range of working styles for the new age.
<Social Issues>Risks in international society
- Working disparity
- Reduction in workforce
- Diversityetc.
SDGs list the issues of gender equality, sustainable economic growth, and employment among them. In Japan, the Act of Promotion of Women’s Participation and Advancement in the Workplace was enforced on April 1, 2016. We now face concerns for labor shortages in the future and diversification in occupational needs, and globalization. To address these issues, it is indispensable to diversify human resources in various employment areas. Women’s participation is particularly important in such employment issues.

Outline of Activities in FY2015
Fuji Xerox offers solution services to build environments where diverse people can work in the way most suitable for their own situations, regardless of location and time.
In FY2015, we launched DocuStation C3375 CS, a self-service public official certificate issuance system that enables users to obtain official documents without visiting public offices, and solution services to obtain “My Number,” the Japanese national ID number introduced in January 2016, in the manner most suitable to or specially tailored to each customer.
We also reinforced interconnections between various functions within Fuji Xerox’s cloud services, Working Folder, and Scan Translation Service, thereby improving their convenience. Further, we commenced sales of solution services, multifunction devices, and production printers, all of which support the mobile work of our customers. Such new products and solutions include Cloud On-Demand Print, a service to create a flexible printing environment for companies to promote collaborative work relationships through smoother document deliveries and information sharing.
Future Prospects
To contribute to resolving increasingly complicated social issues, we continue to develop and offer ICT and Cloud-based solution services and products that address clients’ business issues or offer new ways of working, along with concrete examples of our own experience of resolving similar problems.
A newly introduced research collaboration system that links researchers from diverse cultural backgrounds in Japan, North America, and Singapore, is helping to evolve reforms to our own working styles and business processes through new ways of communications utilizing ICT. We then offer the results of such reforms as solutions to customers.
