Timee has signed a comprehensive partnership agreement with Oyabe City, Toyama Prefecture, aiming to address labor shortages and revitalize the local economy.

Timee Inc. (Location: Minato-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director: Ryo Ogawa), which provides the "Timee" part-time job service, has signed a comprehensive partnership agreement with Oyabe City, Toyama Prefecture (Mayor: Morio Sakurai, hereinafter referred to as "Oyabe City"), the Oyabe Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Chairman: Hiroyuki Fururoku), and the Oyabe City Business Association (Chairman: Tomotsugu Maeda).

Oyabe City, which plays an important role as the western gateway to Toyama Prefecture, is known as a "conveniently located area" where three expressways intersect: the Hokuriku Expressway, the Tokai-Hokuriku Expressway, and the Noto Expressway. With the opening of the Hokuriku Shinkansen and the first outlet mall in the Hokuriku area, it is attracting attention as a hub for the exchange of people, goods, and information. However, on the other hand, the city is facing a severe labor shortage due to population decline and an aging population. While the proportion of the young population (0-14 years old) has decreased from 13.4% in 2000 to 10.2% in 2020, the proportion of the elderly population (65 years and older) has significantly increased from 23.5% to 37.5%. It is expected that the working-age population will rapidly decrease in the future (※1). Against this backdrop, our company, Oyabe City, the Oyabe Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and the Oyabe City Business Association will collaborate to promote economic revitalization within Oyabe City by securing a diverse workforce, working together on projects that leverage each other's resources. Under our mission of "Creating infrastructure that expands life's possibilities through 'work'," we will strive to solve local issues within Oyabe City.
