The Best Place to Work
AIG Japan is committed to ensuring a work style that creates a positive difference, where we are all proactive in our thinking, our decision-making, and our actions. In Japan, AIG has implemented the Best Place to Work initiatives to ensure employees work in a vibrant, fulfilling, engaging, and rewarding working environment. The Best Place to Work initiatives were developed with a broad perspective considering factors such as health, family life, community, career progression and professional development.
The Best Place to Work covers the following eight themes.

- Rewards: Encouraging and rewarding employees based on transparency and performance management
- Office / IT : A positive work environment to encourage collaboration and innovation

Work@Homebase
AIG Japan encourages all employees to “Own Your Career”. Based on this concept, AIG Japan has flexible work styles for all employees – the Work@Homebase system embodies this approach. The Work@Homebase system includes registering a preferred working area that is designated as a homebase – this system removes involuntary relocation at the company’s request. Each employee is empowered to develop their own career path without the concern of being relocated. Registration of preferred homebase locations can also be adjusted based on various personal circumstances and life stages.
Health and Wellness
AIG Japan believes that health and wellness is crucial to maintaining and strengthening motivation and performance in the workplace. As a risk management company, we also ensure our employees are risk-aware and health conscious in their own daily lives to lead a balanced, healthy and vibrant life that allows each individual to bring the best version of themselves to work and enjoy life to its fullest. To ensure our employees achieve this, AIG Japan is committed to creating a work environment where everyone can work in a healthy and positive way, where we strive to increase corporate value and we actively promote health management through the concerted efforts of each individual. AIG Japan also works closely with the AIG Health Insurance Association on efforts including holding various events and promoting the improvement of health literacy, including mental health awareness, efforts to reduce overtime work and encouraging employees to take paid leave.
