Creating an Inclusive Workplace
With a deep understanding and commitment to building an inclusive culture, we continue to incorporate more sustainable improvements in our workplace. The efforts of each of our employees help us drive change and create a haven of an inclusive workplace.
We are an Equal Opportunity Employer
Nippondata believes in ‘being just,’ and provides equal opportunities for its employees to thrive in diverse roles and responsibilities.
Across the board, we take an unbiased approach to work and do not discriminate on the basis of age, race, religion, sex, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or disability.
We value our employees, and we therefore:
- Encourage them to report any kind of harassment or incident without any fear of retaliation.
- Don’t force our employees to reveal their gender identity or sexual orientation through internal processes.
- Uphold our longstanding commitment to pay equity and address the gender wage gap in a comprehensive manner with our performance-based appraisal system.
- Offer all major religious festivals as floating holidays since our workforce is religiously diverse.
- Organize internal events to honor each minority ethnic group’s festivals and celebrations.
- Reward outstanding contributions with Gratifi, Nippondata’s R&R platform.
We believe in skill-based and bias-free hiring
As part of our inclusive culture, we strive for equal employment opportunities. To that effect, our Talent Acquisition team actively conducts multiple recruitment drives to find the right candidates.
For us, all applicants are equal, and to remove gender bias during hiring, we give gender-neutral descriptions, ensure that interview panels are balanced, and hold gender sensitization sessions for recruiters and hiring managers.
Even ‘Campus Recruits’ are welcomed and given every opportunity to shine through various innovative soft skills and technical training programs. Nippondata is noted for churning campus recruits into rock-solid professionals in the shortest possible time.
We upskill our employees through learning & development programs
At Nippondata, we believe that the best way to help employees thrive and bridge their learning gap is through a blend of on-the-job experience and formal and informal learning.
The objective is always to achieve quality work and consistent productivity, by focusing on the employees’ happiness and contentment. We deliver this through a mixture of coaching, mentoring, training programs, workshops, and sessions with the managers and leadership.
Our Technical Skills, Soft Skills, Knowledge Management, Work-Life Balance, Leadership, and Diversity programs provide opportunities for Nippondata member at all levels to grow as employees.
We ensure that every Nippondata member has the privilege to upskill, and upgrade without bias!

We are a data-science driven company
Nippondata firmly believes that competence trumps experience, and a competent employee is duly accredited.
Our desire to create a bias-free workplace where all perspectives are valued led us to build an in-house predictive analytics platform. This platform minimizes the effect of human biases while deciding the value of an employee to the firm, irrespective of gender, ethnicity, location, etc. This allows people from all communities to feel included and welcomed into the Nippondata family.
We have inclusive policies
At Nippondata, we strongly advocate zero tolerance for sexual harassment, bribery, unethical behavior, and acts against human dignity.
As a part of our company’s policies, we have the Prevention of Sexual Harassment (P.O.S.H.) policy included in our HR manual. We also have an Internal Complaints Committee (ICC) to handle sexual harassment complaints and have the active involvement of the leadership team in executing the P.O.S.H. policy. Additionally, our ‘open door policy’ allows employees to meet with senior management and share their concerns.
