COMPANY PROFILE
Aims for a world where non-desk workers are the main players with the power of technology
In recent years, the sense of shortage of non-desk workers has become more prominent than other industries, even in the trend of Japan's population decrease. On the downside of this shortage, young people are increasingly inclined to white-collar jobs, making it even more difficult to acquire young successors in the non-desk industry. However, on the busy and overworked sites due to the shortage of personnel, there are few resources for securing personnel and improving productivity, and there is also a shortage of digital talent within the company.
Against this background, we focus on the ""non-desk industry"" which has not received attention for its contributions, in order to resolve the shortage of personnel and promote digitalization.
