The present invention provides an anti-human FOLR1 antibody against diseases associated with human FOLR1-expressing cells, which specifically recognizes and binds to an amino acid sequence of human FOLR1 or a conformational structure thereof and also has a high effector activity such as antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity activity (ADCC activity). The present invention can provide a monoclonal antibody which specifically recognizes and binds to the amino acid sequence of human FOLR1 or the conformational structure thereof and also has ADCC activity and CDC activity, or an antibody fragment thereof, a DNA encoding the antibody, a vector comprising the DNA, a transformant obtained by introducing the vector, a method for producing the antibody or the antibody fragment thereof using the transformant, and a therapeutic agent and a diagnostic agent comprising the antibody or the antibody fragment as an active ingredient.
