Establishment of New Company Focusing on Foreign Talent: 'Labor Shortage is Not a Matter of People'

Japan is said to be facing a "labor shortage." But is it really "people" that are in short supply?

In recent years, it has become common to see foreign talent thriving in city centers, restaurants, and service industries. People working in unfamiliar countries and languages are already becoming the core of the workforce.

Meanwhile, many companies still assume recruitment is limited to the domestic market. Behind this is a structural change in the Japanese labor market: the population is decreasing, but the amount of work is not. Japan's working-age population is in long-term decline, while the job-to-applicant ratio remains high. In short, the "labor shortage" is not a temporary issue but a structural one.

Whether to "hire domestically" or "hire from the world"—this difference in premise will significantly influence future corporate growth. Foreign talent is not just a solution for labor shortages; it is a "strategy" to accelerate growth.

Against this background, Alliance of Japan Co., Ltd. was established to maximize the potential of foreign talent and support corporate growth. The company will provide comprehensive support for human resource strategies necessary for growth, including domestic and international recruitment, recruitment support, RPO, and offshore development.

As a bridge between Japan and the world, we will continue to contribute to the sustainable growth of companies.

What is lacking might not be human resources, but perspective.
