[Note] *1: At the time of the system's introduction in October 2023, the company conducted its own research on the existence of welfare benefit systems aimed at "egg freezing cost assistance" in the Japanese construction and equipment installation industry (referring to public information such as major press release sites, industry magazines, and lists of egg freezing bank providers). As a result, no prior examples were confirmed within the same industry, hence it is stated as "the first in the construction industry."
