(Headquarters: Sakura City, Chiba Prefecture; President and CEO: Nobuyuki Hantani).

■ Background to Implementation

'Wakarukaigo Biz', a corporate welfare service for companies supporting the balance between work and caregiving, features a one-stop service from initial consultation to problem resolution, and has so far been provided to over 2,650 companies and more than 2.36 million employees and their families.

Suzuki Giken Co., Ltd. has adopted this service starting this fiscal year, recognizing its features, as they sought to create an environment where employees can continue to work with peace of mind even in sudden emergencies, without feeling burdened or anxious about caring for their families.

■ What is the Work-Life Balance Support Service 'Wakarukaigo Biz'?

As support for employees facing burdens and anxieties related to caregiving, the service includes:

"Fact-Finding Survey" (Grasping the reality of work and caregiving within the company to consider necessary support measures)

"Care Concierge" (Caregiving consultations via phone/email, referrals to care managers/care facilities, etc.)

"Caregiving Seminar" (Support measures for balancing work and caregiving, basic knowledge, prevention, etc.)

"Caregiving Information Website" (Search for caregiving providers nationwide, practical skill videos, etc.)

This is a service that provides comprehensive support for problem-solving.

■ The Need for 'Work and Caregiving Balance Support'

Amidst a declining birthrate and aging population, the number of people struggling to balance work and family caregiving is increasing. According to national surveys, over 100,000 people leave their jobs annually due to caregiving responsibilities. Those who leave most frequently are in the age group that forms the core of organizations. Balancing caregiving and work is no longer an issue for someone else or another company; it has become a reality for everyone.

We will establish a system for Suzuki Giken Co., Ltd. that provides a caregiving consultation desk staffed by counselors, enabling swift and concrete problem-solving tailored to the needs of individual consultants.
