Human Adjust Co., Ltd. Receives White Company Certification | Passes Rigorous 70-Item Review

Human Adjust Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Yasushi Negishi; hereinafter "the Company") is pleased to announce that it has received the "White Company Certification" operated by the Japan Next-Generation Enterprise Promotion Foundation (commonly known as the White Foundation) effective April 1, 2026.

■ What is the White Company Certification?

The White Company Certification is a comprehensive corporate evaluation system operated by the White Foundation and is the only one of its kind in Japan.

Rather than simply certifying companies that are "not black," the program targets businesses that are "supported by families and society and worth passing on to the next generation." A comprehensive assessment is conducted based on 70 rigorous criteria, including business model, talent development, flexible work styles, diversity, health management, and labor law compliance. This holistic evaluation system assesses the entire organization's HR systems and structure, not just isolated initiatives. As of April 2026, a total of 663 companies have received this certification.

■ The Challenge: Transforming the Profession into a 'Career for Life'

In the acupuncture and orthopedic clinic industry, long working hours and standardized treatment protocols have become commonplace, leaving many practitioners struggling with a gap between their original aspirations and daily reality. Yasushi Negishi, Representative Director of Human Adjust Co., Ltd., is himself one who has experienced such challenges firsthand.

From this experience, he developed a core management philosophy: "Rather than trying to change people, we create an environment where people can naturally grow and transform." The company believes that enabling practitioners with purpose to fully utilize their abilities is not only key to individual growth but also the starting point for transforming the entire industry. Guided by this belief, the company has advanced its unique organizational development.

■ A Non-Standardized Clinical Environment and a System to Visualize Growth

Currently, the company operates under a 'small but elite' model, delivering fully customized treatments tailored to each patient's unique symptoms. This commitment to addressing root causes—rather than relying on uniform manuals—forms the foundation of the company's high treatment quality.

Central to maintaining and enhancing this quality is a continuous talent development system. Through leadership meetings, training camps, and an internal social network, the company fosters not only technical skills but also human and organizational capabilities. Furthermore, by quantifying treatment outcomes and making them visible, the company has established an objective, data-driven approach to education and evaluation—enabling even junior practitioners to clearly perceive their progress.

In addition, the company is building a solid foundation for long-term, secure employment by enhancing welfare benefits and institutional support.

■ Comment from Representative Director Yasushi Negishi

"We aim to become a company that transforms the industry standard by creating an environment where practitioners can work with peace of mind for their entire lives. Believing in the power of environment to change people, we will continue to build a workplace where practitioners can grow not only in technical skill but also in humanity and business acumen. It is our mission to realize a future where purpose-driven practitioners take pride in their work and deliver their value to society."

■ Future Outlook

As talent shortages and early employee turnover remain industry-wide challenges, creating an environment where people can continue working is an unavoidable priority for all companies. Human Adjust Co., Ltd. will continue to address this issue not only through improving systems and conditions but also by deeply engaging with each practitioner's sense of growth and purpose at work.

With this White Company Certification as a new milestone, the company will further strengthen its organization and deepen its contribution to the industry. By becoming a valuable presence for patients, employees, and local communities alike, the company aims to realize its vision of becoming a "group of practitioners that energizes Japan."
