On the back of the current strong economic recovery here in Japan, many corporations are experiencing a shortage of labor. Issues such as the rise in younger Japanese seeking work on a part-time basis, the decline in the birthrate, increased numbers of younger Japanese choosing early retirement, the “2007 Problem” (where large numbers of the baby-boomer generation will reach retirement age beginning in 2007) and other labor problems are contributing to tightness in the employment market. This tightening of the supply and demand balance in the Japanese labor market has increased the competition to secure skilled workers by corporations.

Therefore our role in providing employment opportunities for workers continues to grow in importance. And as an integral part of this role, we seek to increase the satisfaction of workers we help to find jobs for by providing them with employment opportunities where they can fully realize their potential. I am fully committed to achieving these goals and I will fully utilize all of my know-how and experience gathered during my 25 year career in the human resources business.

EnJapan maintains the corporate principles of “social justice” and “uniqueness” at the foundation of its business. And in keeping with these principles we seek to act responsibly to the society which we serve and to avoid the pitfalls of a strategy where the pursuit of only profits is given top priority. We believe that by providing unique and high quality services, we can satisfy both job applicants and job offering companies while maintaining a highly profitable business over the long-term.

Based on this corporate philosophy, we are driven to maintain our position as the “number one” website in terms of information and service quality. And as part of our efforts to achieve this end, we will continue to provide detailed and accurate job information based on interviews conducted completely by our in-house staff to promote the best match of job-seekers to job-offers. EnJapan will also provide support services designed to ensure that workers continue to contribute long after they are hired. Longer term, we also hope to expand our business model to other markets around the world.

Ultimately our goal is to resolve the numerous problems in the labor market by providing useful services that promote a long and constructive relationship between workers and hiring companies. Therefore we ask for your continued support and understanding in our future business endeavors.
