[From Kyoto] How are “trusted companies” built? Style Co., Ltd., which promotes organizational development with a “staff-first” approach, receives White Company Certification as of March 2026

The Japan Next Generation Corporate Promotion Organization (White Foundation) has awarded the "White Company Certification" to Style Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture; Representative Director: Kotaro Miyake), a company that provides human resources services centered on construction management, effective March 1, 2026.

In an era where the question of whether a company is "trusted" is paramount, businesses are being asked more than ever to provide essential values such as "peace of mind" and "trust."

Against this backdrop, we have taken note of the company's "staff-first" philosophy, which prioritizes the ease of working and personal growth of each individual employee, and its commitment to creating an environment where staff can continue to work with peace of mind.

### About White Company Certification

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

This certification does not target companies simply because they are "not black companies" (exploitative), but rather those that are "supported by families and society, and are companies we want to leave for the next generation."

Based on strict evaluation criteria covering 70 items—including business models, human resource development, flexible working styles, diversity, health management, and compliance with labor laws—a comprehensive assessment is conducted. As of March 2026, a cumulative total of 650 companies have received this certification.

Following this assessment, the White Foundation certified Style Co., Ltd. as of March 1, 2026.

### Background of Certification — Building an organization that balances flexible working styles with job satisfaction —

The Foundation took note of Style Co., Ltd.'s organizational development, which integrates flexible working styles with human resource development. Given the nature of their human resources services, which focus on construction management, the company has established an environment where sales representatives and the Career Promotion Department work together to support each individual, ensuring they can continue to work with peace of mind.

The quality of work styles is supported not only by systems but by "people." For this reason, the company does not leave things entirely to the job sites; instead, it has built a mechanism to foster "talent that can succeed anywhere" through continuous follow-up and the sharing of values. We also evaluated the system in place that allows for steady growth while adjusting environments and providing career support tailored to individual circumstances.

Furthermore, in the field of construction management—a job that supports society—the company is committed to creating an environment where employees can continuously feel a sense of fulfillment. We focused on how they achieve both growth and peace of mind through appropriate site assignments, the provision of opportunities for challenge, and ongoing support. By having ease of work and job satisfaction interact, a foundation for sustainable growth has been built.

Due to these efforts, we evaluated the company as having built an organizational foundation that balances flexible working styles with job satisfaction, leading to this certification.

### Corporate Philosophy Centered on "Staff-First"

The Foundation focused on the "staff-first" philosophy upheld by Style Co., Ltd.

Through its human resources service business centered on construction management, the company is committed to creating an environment where employees can continue to work with peace of mind, while emphasizing the safety, growth, and ease of work for each individual.

We also noted that the company enhances its corporate value by establishing a system that supports long-term growth while respecting the careers and values of its employees.

### The Challenge of Building an Organization that Supports Flexible Work

The Foundation focused on the company's initiative to "realize work styles that are close to each individual."

We evaluated the collaboration between sales representatives and the Career Promotion Department, which addresses consultations regarding work and workplace environments, and provides environmental adjustments and career support tailored to individual situations.

Rather than setting uniform work styles, a system is in place that allows for the realization of work styles that suit each person.

### A Sustainable Growth Model that Generates Job Satisfaction

The Foundation noted the company's commitment to creating an environment where employees can continuously feel a sense of fulfillment in the work of construction management, which supports society.

A mechanism has been built where each individual can feel their own growth through appropriate site assignments based on experience and skills, and the provision of opportunities for challenge.

Furthermore, by creating an environment where employees can face their work with peace of mind through continuous support, the company achieves a balance between ease of work and job satisfaction, which is evaluated as a sustainable growth model.

### Thoughts and Challenges from Mr. Miyake, Representative of Style Co., Ltd.

**I want to create an environment where employees can work with pride.**

Through the work of construction management, we want to deliver value to society while providing an environment where each employee can continue to grow with peace of mind. To achieve this, it is essential to have an environment where employees take pride in their work and can proactively take on challenges for the future.

By staying close to each individual and providing opportunities for growth through work, I believe that this accumulation of efforts will lead not only to improved employee satisfaction but also to increased value as a company.

### What is White Company Certification?

**Creating a society where "working" is fun**

The "White Company" as defined by the Japan Next Generation Corporate Promotion Organization (White Foundation) does not refer to "companies that are not black companies" as commonly discussed in society, but rather to "companies that are supported by families and society, and are companies we want to leave for the next generation."

Based on certification criteria, we certify companies as "White Companies" if employees can be told by their families, "I'm glad you work at such a good company." Furthermore, we promote an environment where all working people can utilize their individuality and characteristics to realize vibrant and creative work styles, aiming to realize a society where "working" is fun.

### The only "Comprehensive Evaluation Certification" in Japan

Through surveys of over 1,000 companies, we have created 70 questions aimed at "whitening" (improving) companies. These questions are divided into 7 categories to confirm the presence of corporate initiatives and grant certification.

White Company Certification does not stop at a single initiative; it evaluates and judges human resource systems and corporate efforts comprehensively. This is the only certification organization in Japan that conducts such an assessment.

As of March 2026, a cumulative total of 650 companies have received this certification.
