INPEX CORPORATION (INPEX) was awarded the PRIDE Index 2025 gold certification. Pride Index is a rating index established in 2016 by "work with Pride," a Japan-based organization promoting LGBTQ+ acceptance and diversity management at the workplace.
The PRIDE Index is Japan's first rating index that assesses companies on their efforts to support LGBTQ+ agendas in the workplace.
The index has three certification categories including gold, silver and bronze, and is based on five pillars: policy (action plan); representation (building a supportive community); inspiration (awareness-raising activities); development (personnel system/program) and engagement/empowerment (social responsibility and external activities).
INPEX was recognized for measures including the continuous implementation of its LGBTQ+ awareness-building program, internal network of LGBT allies and recognition of same sex partners and their children as family members, as well as its participation this year in the LGBT-Ally Project involving an external community of ally companies organized by Out Japan Co., Ltd.
INPEX will continue to promote LGBTQ+ initiatives with LGBT allies to create a workplace that offers equal opportunities for all employees, including sexual minorities, and foster a corporate culture that respects diversity.
