In an era where the question of whether a company is "trusted" is paramount, companies are increasingly expected to provide fundamental values such as "peace of mind" and "reliability."

About White Company Certification

The "White Company Certification," operated by the White Foundation, is the only comprehensive corporate evaluation system in Japan.

This certification targets companies that are not merely "not black companies," but rather "companies that are supported by families and society, and that we want to pass on to the next generation."

It involves a comprehensive evaluation based on strict screening criteria covering 70 items, including business model, human resource development, flexible work styles, diversity, health management, and labor law compliance. As of March 2026, a cumulative total of 650 companies have obtained this certification.

As a result of this screening, the White Foundation certified Style Inc. effective March 1, 2026.

Background of Certification — Building an Organization that Balances Flexible Work Styles with Job Satisfaction —

The Foundation noted Style Inc.'s organizational development that integrates flexible work styles with human resource development. Given the nature of its business, which centers on human resource services for construction management, the company's sales representatives and career promotion department collaborate to support each individual, creating an environment where they can work with peace of mind.

The quality of work styles is supported not only by systems but also by "people." Therefore, rather than leaving it to the field, the company has established a system to foster "personnel who can succeed anywhere" through continuous follow-up and sharing of values. The system's ability to provide tailored environmental adjustments and career support for individual circumstances, leading to steady growth, was also evaluated.

Furthermore, the company is committed to creating an environment where employees can continuously feel a sense of accomplishment in their work, which supports society through construction management. The focus was on achieving a balance of growth and security through appropriate site assignments, opportunities for challenges, and ongoing support. The foundation for sustainable growth is built upon the synergistic effect of ease of work and job satisfaction.

These initiatives have led to the establishment of an organizational foundation that balances flexible work styles with job satisfaction, resulting in this certification.
